INTRO: G, C, G, C, F, C, G, C, C
[tab] C Em F C
Have you stood by the ocean, on a diamond-hard morning[/tab]
[tab] G Dm C G
And felt the hor-izon stir deep in your soul[/tab]
[tab] C Em F C
Watched the wake of a steamer as it cut through blue water[/tab]
[tab] Em Dm G C (*)
And been gripped by a fever you just can't con-trol[/tab]
[tab] C Em F C
Oh to throw off the shackles and fly with the seagulls[/tab]
[tab] Em Dm C G (*)
To where green waves tumble before a driving sea wind[/tab]
[tab] C Em F C
Or to lie on the decking on a warm summer's evening[/tab]
[tab] Em Dm C G C
Watch the red sun fall burning, be-neath the earth's rim[/tab]
CHORUS:
[tab] C Em F G
But to every sailor, comes time to drop anchor[/tab]
[tab]C Em F G
Haul in the sails, and make the lines fast[/tab]
[tab] C G F G
You deep water dreamer, your journey is over[/tab]
[tab] C G F *
You're safe in the harbour at last[/tab]
[tab] C G F *
You're safe in the harbour at last[/tab]
NOTES:
- Commemorates Stan Roger's tragic death in 1983

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