[Verse]
E                                A E
Now the salt from the sea it has vanished

From the sea

But the sea

O'er the sea

O'er the sea

On the sea
       B                         E           A

On the sea

Take my hand I will show you the world

Follow me

                            A E
And we'll live happily ever after

Says he
       E
On the sea

On the sea
                                  A E
Put this picture and time in your pocket

Remember me
       E
On the sea

On the sea
