Across the straits around the Horn how far can sailors fly? A twisted path our tortured course and no one left alive   [Verse 2] We sailed for parts unknown to man where ships come home to die   No lofty peak nor fortress bold could match our captain’s eye! Upon the seventh seasick day we made our port of call A sand so white and sea so blue no mortal place at all    [Instrumental] (muted played staccato)     Dm7b5    /     F7sus4 [Verse 3] We fired the gun and burned the mast and rowed from ship to shore The captain cried we sailors wept our tears were tears of joy! Now many moons and many Junes have passed since we made land a salty dog this seaman’s log your witness my own hand   [Instrumental]     Dm7b5    /     F7sus4 ...
