Rockcliffe Bay

        G
He said part of me
         C       G
Has been lost at sea
Am              D
Never to return again
         G
With her eyes wide open
        C      G
She was softly spoken
           Am                      
She said: "babe, are you missing 
         D
the breeze again?"
            G
You look so fine, sailor
     C           G
Your shoes still shine
Am                                
After years of a house that don't 
D
sway
              G
But she could see in his eyes
            C          G
that ship's flag still flies
        Am           D
And his home was a ocean away


[chorus]

    G
He sang, freedom was mine

    C        G
For one last time
           Am                  D
When I was sailing along those waves
           G
But now my plate don't slide
       C         G
And my rum's now wine
           Am    D      G
And I will never be the same
             G
I don't hear birds no more
            C             G
But there's swallows on my hands
          Am                       
I earnt a star that wasn't plucked 
    D
from above
         G
I have memories of friends
      C                G
Who left this earth as young men
                Am         D  
Yet my hairs as white as my hat 
        G
once, was
          G
He sang, freedom was mine
    C        G
For one last time
           Am                  D
When I was sailing along those waves
           G
But now my plate don't slide
       C         G
And my rum's now wine
           Am    D      G
And I will never be the same
                      G
I hear a blast in the background
         C         G
Feel the wind whip my face
         Am                D
Towing a sister ship that didn't 
make it home
            G
Colours, fade away from me
    C       Am
As I awake, my wife said
     Am       D         G
"I'm sleeping next to my own"
      G
He sang, freedom was mine
    C        G
For one last time
           Am                  D
When I was sailing along those waves
           G
But now my plate don't slide
       C         G
And my rum's now wine
           Am    D      G
And I will never be the same
