Verse: 
       G 
As the son of a son of a sailor  
       F          C         G  
I went out on the sea for adventure 
  C                       G   
Expanding the view of the captain and crew  
       D                        G          C G   
like a man just released from indentured 
 
 
     G            
As a dreamer of dreams and a travelin' man 
       F          C      G 
I have chalked up many a mile. 
     C                     G 
Read dozens of books about heroes and crooks  
      D                                 G        C G 
and I learned much from both of their styles. 
 
F             C 
Son of a son, Son of a son 
                  G         C G 
Son of a son of a sailor 
 
F             C 
Son of a gun, Load the last ton 
                      G         C G 
One step ahead of the jailor
 
 
 
Verse: 
    G  
Now way in the near future,  
F         C     G 
Southeast of disorder 
        C                        G 
You can shake the hand of the mango man  
      D                 G        C G 
As he greets you at the border 
 
        G           
And the lady she hails from trinidad,  
F      C      G 
Island of the spices 
C                       G 
Salt for your meat, and cinnamon sweet 
        D                        G        C G 
And the rum is for all your good vices. 
 
 
Bridge: 
F                       C 
Haul the sheet in as we ride on the wind 
                                  G        C G     
That our fore-fathers harnessed before us 
F                          C 
Hear the bells ring as the tide rigging sings  
                         G        C G 
It's a son of a gun of a chorus 
 
Solo: 
F, C, G 
F, C, G C G 
 
Verse: 
    G               
Now where it all ends, I can't fathom my friends 
     F            C           G 
If I knew I might toss out my anchor 
C                           G 
So I'll cruise along always searching for songs 
      D                    G       C G 
Not a lawyer, a thief or a banker 
 
 
Chorus: 
F                   C         
But a son of a son, son of a son 
                  G      C G 
Son of a son of a sailor 
F             C  
Son of a gun, load the last ton  
                      G       C G 
One step ahead of the jailor 
 
F                        C 
I'm just a son of a son, son of a son 
                  G        C G 
Son of a son of a sailor 
    F                        C  
The sea's in my veins, my tradition remains 
                                G        C G 
I'm just glad I don't live in a trailer,
