VERSE
E
We were born before the wind
Also younger than the sun
B (bar the 7th fret)                              E  (open)
Eyre the bonnie boat was won, as we sailed into the mystic

E
Hark now hear the sailor's cry
Smell the sea and feel the sky
B                                   E
Let your soul and spirit fly into the mystic
