Hoist your sails to the wind, let her blow boys.

And you know we're sailing home

[Verse 1]
Am Am C G
When I hear a piper pipe a sad lament across the Glen
Am Am C G
or see the welcome smile upon a passingface again
C Em Am Em
Or taste the fresh salt air blowing on a westward wind
C G
I'll know I'm home, I'll know I'm home
Am Am Am Am
[Verse 2]
Am Am C G
When I see the small boats haul their traps rolling on the tide
Am Am C G
Or have an old man make me laugh or bring tears to my eyes
C Em Am Em
Or shake the hands that shook the world with music filled with pride
C G Am Am
I'll know I'm home, I'll know I'm home.
F C G Am F
So hoist your sails, to the wind. Let her blow boys, home again
C G Am F G Am
Fair, fair as she has ever been and you know we're sailing home.

[Verse 3]
Am Am C G
So to the men who broke their backs a debt I have to pay
Am Am C G
To the ones who've long since past to find a better way
C Em Am Em
Come now lads and raise a glass we'll join them all some day
C G Am Am
Sailing home, sailing home.
F C G Am F
So hoist your sails, to the wind. Let her blow boys, home again
C G Am F G Am
Fair, fair as she has ever been, and you know we're sailing home
F G Am F G Am
And you know we're sailing home. And you know we're sailing home.
