I think it sounds best in key of A, but
key of C works too.
6 8 -8 7 6 5 6 7 -6
I'm sailing down the summer wind
-6 -6 6 7 7 7 -8
I got whiskers on my chin
8 -8 7 7 -7 -6 6
And I like the mood I'm in
7 7 8 8 8 -8 7 7 7
As I while away the time of day
7 7 6 7 7 7 7 -7
In the lee of Christian Island
8 -8 7 5 6 7 -6
Tall and strong she dips and reels
-6 6 7 7 7 -8
I call her Silver Heels
8 -8 7 7 -7 -6 6
And she tells me how she feels
7 7 8 8 8 8 8 -8 7 7
She's a good old boat and she'll stay afloat
6 6 7 7 7 7 -8 7 -7
Through the toughest gales and keep smiling
7 7 8 8 8 7 7 -6 -6 6
But for one more day she would like to stay
6 6 6 6 -6 6 6 7
In the lee of Christian Island
I'm sailing down the summer day
Where fish and seagulls play
I put my troubles all away
And when the gale comes up I'll fill my cup
With the whiskey of the highlands
She's a good old ship and she'll make the trip
From the lee of Christian Island
Tall and strong she slips along
I sing for her a song
And she leans into the wind
She's a good old boat and she'll stay afloat
Through the toughest gales and keep smilin'
When the summer ends we will rest again
In the lee of Christian Island
When the summer ends we will rest again
In the lee of Christian Island
