The Open Door

Em


[Verse 1]
  Em      D      G
"Time is on my side,
          C                D
We´ll be home before the morning,
 Em         D        G
With this evening´s tide,
         C                D
We will sail in with the dawn;"
    C                G
So said the weary Captain,
 D           Em
To his loyal men,
       C                   G      
"And soon we´ll see from years 
        D
upon the ocean
           Em
Our home again;



[Verse 2]
            D           G
Fill your hearts with pride,
           C          D
For it´s every man among you,
          Em        D     G
Who has given all, and beside,
           C                   D
There are new lands we have found;
Continues after the ad
 C                 G
We have seen the wonders
        D                Em
At the far ends of the world,
       C           G              
But nothing to compare to our dear
    D
 homeland,
             C     D         C   
But oh the stories, so many 
     D           Gm
stories!



[Chorus]
        Gm                  F     
We´ve fought with Pirates hand to 
  Bb
hand,
 Eb                   Bb    F
Plundered treasure, taken land,
  Gm                 F       Bb
This in the name of God and King,
 Eb               F    Bb  
All the livelong day, all the 
             F
livelong day;
             Gm              F    
We´ve seen fearful monsters from 
    Bb
the deep,
 Eb                    Bb    F
Mountains high where Devils sleep,
 Gm                         F   
Saved poor souls from the roaring 
   Bb
sea,
 Eb               F    Bb  
All the livelong day, all the 
              F          G
livelong day;



[Bridge]
 C                D    G     
All the livelong day, now we´re 
           D
coming home;




[Chorus]
    G      D            Em   C
So take me down to the Open Door,
      G     D      G     D
And I´ll be on my way,
    G       D                 Em 
To see the ones who´ve been 
    C
waiting for
     Am                D
Our ship to come this day;
      G       D            Em    
Lets drink a glass to the men who
    C
 fought,
     G      D         G      D
The Bravest of the Brave,
     G       D             Em
And sing a song on these golden 
      C
shores,
    Am       D      G       D
For we are home again;



[Other]
  G           D     Em           C
We're coming home, we're on our way,
 Am      D      G
We are home again;
