A D
I'm just sailing a ship out on the sea
A E
and I can feel your chains pulling on me
A F#m
I can't see the shore no it's been way too long
D E A
so I need you like a sailor needs his song
[Chorus]
D E A
When life's got me three sheets to the wind
D E A F#m
got me tossin' and turnin' like the tide all over again
D E F#m
hold fast to my heart don't be a stranger
D E F#m
cause when I'm facing stormy weather
D E A
darling you are the anchor
A D A
I don't know what I would do
A E A
if I were ever to lose you
A F#m
probably drift away and lose navigation
D E D E A
for as my anchor you held me close to see the lighthouse beacon
[Chorus]
D E A
When life's got me three sheets to the wind
D E A F#m
got me tossin' and turnin' like the tide all over again
D E F#m
hold fast to my heart don't be a stranger
D E F#m
cause when I'm facing stormy weather
D E A
darling you are the anchor
[Instrumental same as second verse]
A D A A E A A F#m D E D E A
[Chorus]
D E A
When life's got me three sheets to the wind
D E A F#m
got me tossin' and turnin' like the tide all over again
D E F#m
hold fast to my heart don't be a stranger
D E F#m
cause when I'm facing stormy weather
D E F#m
darling you are the anchor
D E A
yes you are the anchor
[Tag out]
A D A
I'd do anything to make you stay
A E A
don't you know it's hard to get movin' when your anchor's aweigh
