On Board by Alana Henderson feat. Joshua Burnside
On Board
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:1st fret
INTRO:
NONE
VERSE: (Alana Henderson)
G Am
I don't need no shore leave
F C
'Cause feet fixed, I still sway to the sea's heave
G Am F
Don't need to be wrung out or hung out to dry
C
I know how the lands lie
G Am
And if you came on board
F C
I know you'd scan for the safety of a lighthouse blink
G Am
Any port in a storm, love
F
You promise you won't falter
C G
But I know I've seen men sink
CHORUS: (Alana Henderson and Joshua Burnside)
N.C. C
So you should get on board
G Am F
With someone whose course is steadier than mine
C
You should get on board
G Am
With someone whose eyes are on the horizon
F
Not on the skies
C G
On board with someone
Am F
Whose anchor is heavier than mine
C C G
You should get on board
E Am F
Haa haaaaa
VERSE: (Alana Henderson)
F Am F
'Cause I'm a flotsam jetsam mess
C C G
A drunken sailor in a dre-ess
G Am F
And fifty fathoms deep no less
C C G
When my heart's at sea
G Am
And if you came on board
F C
I know you'd tire of the tossing of my seabed
G Am
And forget what I said
F C G
Ships were not built to be safe, no, no, no
CHORUS: (Alana Henderson and Joshua Burnside)
G C
So you should get on board
G Am F
With someone whose course is steadier than mine
C
You should get on board
G Am
With someone whose eyes are on the horizon
F F C
Not on the ski-ies
G
On board with someone
Am F
Whose anchor is heavier than mine
C C G
You should get on board
E Am F
Ha ha haaaa
VERSE: (Joshua Burnside]
F C
Well, I've weathered worse storms
E
Than the one, the one you've been
Am F
Brewin' up in your mind
F C
I've weathered worse storms
E Am
Lord knows, he knows I've been sailin'
F
For an awfully long time
C E
Worse storms than all your fair-weather friends
Am
And your shipmates combined
F
Tie up those lines
C
'Cause I shot the albatross
G
And I will swim across
Am F
The old man and the sea has nothin' on me
C
'Cause this love is steady
E
Truer than North
Am F C
Now you take that on board
G Am F
You take that on boar-oard
CHORUS: (Alana Henderson and Joshua Burnside)
F C
No, you should get on board
G Am F
With someone whose course is steadier than mine
C
You should get on board
(I've weathered worse storms)
G Am
With someone whose eyes are on the horizon
F F C
Not on the ski-ies
(I stare at)
G
On board with someone
Am F
Whose anchor is heavier than mine
F C G
You should get on board
(I've sailed in a storm)
G Am F
Will end for the year
VERSE: (Alana Henderson and Joshua Burnside)
N.C. C
I'll be the figurehead
G
On your ship's bow
Am
I'll be the last glimpse of a topsail
F
As we go down
C
I'll be waiting on the seabed
G
Repeating the words
Am F
Don't forget, ships were not built to be safe
(You said)
C G
And in all my life's mistakes
G
You were not one
Am
'Cause all I've ever done
F
All I've ever done
C
Is love you
G Am F C
To the bottom of the deep blue sea
