[Verse 1]
                 C
Build yourself a boat, babe
F             C
Make yourself a sail
F              Am
Float into the ocean
   F C
To nowhere
F                  C
Yeah, I see you're looking
F             C
Looking for a sign
F             Am
Praying for a beacon
   F          C
So here's the light


[Pre-Chorus]
   D7        Fm      C
My arms will be wide open
        D7     Fm    C       G
For the moment you arrive, arrive


[Chorus]
C
When you set sail on your journey
                 D    G
And happiness is far away
C
Love will guide you 'til the morning
                     D     G
Lead your heart down to the bay
C
Don't resist the rain and storm
     F               D       G
I'll never leave you lost at sea
C      F       E          Am
I will be your lighthouse keeper
F                G       C
Bring you safely home to me
C      F       E          Am
I will be your lighthouse keeper
F                G       C
Bring you safely home to me


[Verse 2]
                   C
Yeah, I see you're lonely
F         C
Going in alone
F           Am
Fire up the engine
F         C
Stoke the coal
F             C
Floating on a feeling
F                 C
Fighting with the tide
F              Am       F         C
Hope you'll be home for Christmas time


[Pre-Chorus]
   D7        Fm      C
My arms will be wide open
        D7     Fm    C       G
For the moment you arrive, arrive


[Chorus]
C
When you set sail on your journey
                 D    G
And happiness is far away
C
Love will guide you 'til the morning
                     D     G
Lead your heart down to the bay
C
Don't resist the rain and storm
     F               D       G
I'll never leave you lost at sea
C      F       E          Am
I will be your lighthouse keeper
F                G       C
Bring you safely home to me
C      F       E          Am
I will be your lighthouse keeper
F                G       C
Bring you safely home to me
