Verse 1:
Play Riff 1 through verse

brought up in a world of changes
part time cleaner in a holiday flat
I stare out to sea at the ships at night
no anaesthesia, I'm going to work on it day by day
no zephyr, no light relief it seems

The last 2 bars leading into the bridge go:
                                                         Eb7

Bridge#1a:

 Eb/Db      Cm6		  Eb/Db	  Cm6
	but may-be it's a dream
    C#
I'm lying back in a row of timber
C#
cases placed out on the dock
		     C#	
with nightmare faces looking at me
A/G
and I can see now, I wanna be free now

Chorus:
E   
   this is my home
E
   this is my sea
E						A/G
   don't paint it with the future of factories
E
   I want to stay
E
   I feel ok
E
   there's nothing else that's perfect
E 
  I'll have my way

Verse 2:
Play Riff 1 through verse with adlibs

brought up in a world of changes,
waste-product, pedestrian limb from limb
short-changed by the surfin' priest again
two children in the harbour,
they play their games storm water drain
write their contract in the sand, it'll be grey for life

Bridge#1b:
Eb/Db       Cm6             Eb/Db  Cm6 
   	but you can draw the blind,
    C#
but you can't stop the sun from shining
C#
on and on and getting you there
                                C#  
the tide forever beckons you to leave

but something holds you back,		C#
it's not the promise of a swell or a girl
				C#
just a hope that someday, some way,
A/G
it'll be ok.  You stop and say

E
   This is my home
E 
   This is my sea
E                                             A/G
   Don't paint it with the future of factories
E   
   this is my life
E   
   this is my right
E   
   I'll make it what I want to
E   
   I'll stay and I'll fight

End:

 I'll fight and I'll fight and I'll fight
