Writers: Chesney/Dillon/Emerick

Intro: Em  D  C9 (x2)

G         D/F#             C9
He walked in with a salty sway
G            D/F#               C9
Lookin' like Blackbeard in his day
G            D/F#           C9  C-G/B-Am7
A brother in arms just like me
Am7           D
I was born a son of the sea
Em                A7
I can't be still, I can't be tied
C9               D
The only time I, I feel alive is


Chorus:
          G            Em
When the wind fills my sail
       Am7            D
Riding on a lifelong swell
        G             Bm7              F  D
Let my heart take me where it wants to go
           Am7 D       Em     D
That's the sou--l of a sailor
     Am7 D       Em     D
The sou--l of a sailor

Em  D  C9

G          D/F#               C9
He slid a stool and a beer to me
G                     D/F#           C9
Said, you know, we're both a dying breed
G               D/F#                C9   C-G/B-Am7
Here's to love lost and newfound friends
Am7                 D
And living out life in the boat we're in
Em                A7
I can't be still, I can't be tied
C9               D
The only time I, I feel alive is


Chorus:
          G            Em
When the wind fills my sail
       Am7            D
Riding on a lifelong swell
        G             Bm7              F  D
Let my heart take me where it wants to go
           Am7 D       Em     D
That's the sou--l of a sailor
     Am7 D       G
The sou--l of a sailor

G  Em  Am7  D (x2)

        G             Bm7              F  D
Let my heart take me where it wants to go
           Am7 D       Em     D
That's the sou--l of a sailor
     Am7 D       Em    D  C9  D  Em  D  C9  G
The sou--l of a sailor
