[Verse]
D         G          A
  We were dead on arrival,
D       G            A
        Safe home at last.
D       G           A
     No cannon fire dockside,
D       G          A
     No flags half-mast.
D         G            A
  We were sold out for silver
D       G               A
  And a string of black pearls
D        G         A
  On the loneliest island
D        G           A
  At the edge of the world.

[Bridge]
Am     G/B       C
  Like destiny's children,
Am     G/B    C
Souls lost at sea.
D                A
  No room on the lifeboat,
D                    A
  you can hold on to me.

Hold on to me, (riff)

           D G A
Hold on to me, (riff)
                   D G A
You can hold on to me

[Verse]
D         G         A
  Now the voyage is over,
D         G           A
    We're back on dry land.
D        G            A
  In our eyes are the stories,
D        G            A
  Of the rope and the brand.

[Bridge]
Am     G/B       C
  Like destiny's children,
Am    G/B           C
      souls lost at sea.
D                A
  No room on the lifeboat,
D                    A
  you can hold on to me.
D                A
  No room on the lifeboat,
D                    A
  you can hold on to me.

[Chorus]
           D G A
Hold on to me, (riff)
           D G A
Hold on to me,
