Tom : Cm
Bb
I know a place at the edge of the land
C# G# F#
Where the grass runs out and turns into sand
Bb
I know a place where a man can‘t stand
C# Eb F
'Cause a man can‘t walk in the sea
Bb
I know a place where a man can‘t go
C# G F#
Where a man would drown and sink below
Bb
But if you have a ship then you should know
C# Eb F
That you can come with me
Bb C# G# F
Come with me on a quest
[Chorus]
Bb C#
I‘m on a quest, a quest for ships
G# Eb
Sailing‘s how I get my kicks
Bb C#
I‘m on a quest, a quest for boats
G# Eb
I‘m mad for anything that floats
Bb C#
I‘m on a quest, to find a craft
G# Eb
A barge or bark or dinghy or raft
[Próxima Parte]
Bb C#
I‘m on a quest, a quest for ships
Eb G# Bb
And now I need my fix
[Verse 2]
Bb
I know a place where we can sail
C# G# F#
A place I heard of once in a tale
Bb
No gems, no gold, no holy grail
C# Eb F
A place at the end of the sea
Bb
But there‘s one problem I can see
C# G# F#
I have no ship that could take me
Bb
But if you have one, or two, or three
C# Eb F
Then you can come with me
Bb C# G# F
Come with me on a quest
[Chorus]
[Próxima Parte]
Bb C#
I‘m on a quest, a quest for ships
Eb G# Bb
And now I need my fix
[Solo]
[Chorus]
[Próxima Parte]
Bb C#
I‘m on a quest, a quest for ships
Eb G# Bb
And now I need my fix
[Outro 2x]
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]

I‘m on a quest, a quest for ships

And now I need my fix

Quest, for ships
