Verse 
  Am 
A noble sailed across the sea 
                    G 
To search a distant land 
  Am 
A new frontier before him 
      C       G     Am 
To provide an upper hand 

Mysterious agendas 
                      G 
Lay behind a graceful guise 
  Am 
A son was born, begotten, shorn 
  C         G     Am 
Betrayed to noble lies 

 
  Dm          Am 
I take to the water 
   C              G 
To glide upon the gales 
    Dm            Am 
The winds that my father rode 
     C             G 
Will never fill my sails

Verse 
    Dm 
The sailors on the salty sea 
   Am 
My brothers I will lead 
    C 
Our cannons fast they burn and blast 
    G 
Our blood is of the Creed 
  Dm 
A father lost to hunger 
        Am 
The temptation of control 
   C 
No sentiment you represent 
    G 
Can tame my savage soul 


  Dm          Am 
I take to the water 
   C              G 
To glide upon the gales 
    Dm            Am 
The winds that my father rode 
     C             G 
Will never fill my sails

Am              G 
Musket guns and silver slivers 
C               E 
Justice runs in crimson rivers

Words of ancient truth we follow 
C                   E 
Bleed these veins into tomorrow
