Intro [V0]
Verse 1:
[C] Rivers and lakes, [F] places to play.
[C] Islands and farms, Ad[F]ventures all day.
Your [Dm] Brothers and sisters, [Em] Uncles and Aunts …
The [F] world was so wide, You [G] all took a [C] chance.
Chorus:
[F] Living your life, [G] Sail on the edge.
[F] Loving your wife, [G] Nothing more said.
[Dm] Raising your sons / Is a [Em] job in the end …
[G] Sail | Sail / [F] Sail |
[G] Sail on the [C] edge.
[C]
Verse 2:
Tractors and cranes / Helped pay for a house.
Office or mill work / Could bring something else.
Toeing the line, / Or take a new risk …
Family comes first, Can the / pieces all \ fit.
Chorus

Verse 3:
En|sure all are safe, / Even when grown.
Still pushing the line, / More seeds to be sown.
Those rivers and lakes / Flow through your soul …
Time is still here, Where did it go.
