C Em F C
Have you stood by the ocean, on a diamond-hard morning
G Dm C G
And felt the hor-izon stir deep in your soul
C Em F C
Watched the wake of a steamer as it cut through blue water
Em Dm G C ( )
And been gripped by a fever you just can't con-trol
C Em F C
Oh to throw off the shackles and fly with the seagulls
Em Dm C G ( )
To where green waves tumble before a driving sea wind
C Em F C
Or to lie on the decking on a warm summer's evening
Em Dm C G C
Watch the red sun fall burning, be-neath the earth's rim
CHORUS
C Em F G
But to every sailor, comes time to drop anchor
C Em F G
Haul in the sails, and make the lines fast
C G F G
You deep water dreamer, your journey is over
C G F
You're safe in the harbour at last
C G F
You're safe in the harbour at last

SAFE IN THE HARBOUR (page 2)
Some men are sailors, but most are just dreamers
G Dm C GHeld fast by the anchors they forge in their minds
C Em F CWho in ther hearts know they'll never sail over deep water
To search for a treasure they're a-fraid they won't find
C Em F CSo in sheltered harbours, they cling to their anchors
Em Dm C G ( )Bank down their boilers and shut down their steam
And wait for the sailors to re-turn with bright treasures
Em Dm C G CThat will fan the dull embers and fire up their dreams
CHORUS
C Em F G
But to every sailor, comes time to drop anchor
Haul in the sails, and make the lines fast
C G F GYou deep water dreamer, your journey is over
C G FYou're safe in the harbour at last
You're safe in the harbour at last
C Em F C
And some men are schemers who laugh at the dreamers
Take the gold from the sailors and turn it to dross
C Em F CThey're men in a prison, they're men without vision
Em Dm G C ( )Whose only hor-izon is profit and loss
So when storm clouds come sailing a-cross your blue ocean
Em Dm C G ( )Hold fast to your dreaming for all that your're worth
C Em F CFor as long as there's dreamers, there will always be sailors
Bringing back their bright treasures from the corners of earth
