[Intro]
Dm Am C G (x2)
Am Am Am G
Am Am C G Am
[Verse]
Am
A noble sailed across the sea
G
To search a distant land
Am
A new frontier before him
C G Am
To provide an upper hand
Mysterious agendas
G
Lay behind a graceful guise
Am
A son was born, begotten, shorn
C G Am
Betrayed to noble lies
[Chorus]
Dm Am
I take to the water
C G
To glide upon the gales
Dm Am
The winds that my father rode
C G
Will never fill my sails
[Instrumental]
Am Am Am G
Am Am C G Am
[Verse]
Dm
The sailors on the salty sea
Am
My brothers I will lead
C
Our cannons fast they burn and blast
G
Our blood is of the Creed
Dm
A father lost to hunger
Am
The temptation of control
C
No sentiment you represent
G
Can tame my savage soul
[Chorus]
Dm Am
I take to the water
C G
To glide upon the gales
Dm Am
The winds that my father rode
C G
Will never fill my sails
[Hook]
(with Native American chant)
Dm Am C G (x2)
[Bridge]
Am Am Am G
You're going to war
Am Am C G Am
You're going to war
Am Am Am G
You're going to war
Am Am C G Am
You're going to war
Am G
Musket guns and silver slivers
C E
Justice runs in crimson rivers
Am G
Words of ancient truth we follow
C E
Bleed these veins into tomorrow
[Chorus]
Dm Am
I take to the water
C G
To glide upon the gales
Dm Am
The winds that my father rode
C G
Will never fill my sails
Dm
The sailors on the salty sea (I take to the water)
Am
My brothers I will lead
C
Our cannons fast they burn and blast (To glide upon the gales)
G
Our blood is of the Creed
Dm
A father lost to hunger (The winds that my father rode)
Am
The temptation of control
C
No sentiment you represent (Will never fill my sails)
G
Can tame my savage soul
