Here it is now Christmas Eve
    A
and I'm out here on the sea 
                              D
Wishing I could be with the family

As the boat tosses to and fro
       G
I can see the Christmas lights glow
       D          A                D
in our home dear, on our christmas tree

             G
Christmas at sea, Christmas at sea
            D
Chistmas at sea, Christmas at sea
                  A
oh how I miss my family 
         D
It's the time of good cheer
      G
but I miss the ones so dear
        D           A            D
For I'm spending my Christmas at sea

D
Oh a sea man's bound to roam
         A
and he's very seldom home
                               D
for he makes his living on the phone

but when christmas bells ring
         G
and the church choir sings
       D              A                  D
oh his heart longs to spend christmas at home

             G
Christmas at sea, Christmas at sea
             D
Chistmas at sea, Christmas at sea
                 A
oh how I miss my family 
         D
It's the time of good cheer
      G
but I miss the ones so dear
        D           A            D
For I'm spending my Christmas at sea

             G
Christmas at sea, Christmas at sea
            D
Chistmas at sea, Christmas at sea
                 A
oh how I miss my family 
         D
It's the time of good cheer
      G
but I miss the ones so dear
        D            A           D
For I'm spending my Christmas at sea
        D            A          D
Oh I'm spending my Christmas at sea
