[Intro] [A cappella] [Stomp and clap beat] [Verse 1] [Lead Baritone] A ship is safe when it’s tied to the dock, [Group Vocals] Haul the lines and let 'em go! [Lead Baritone] But the salt and the sea are what beat the clock, [Group Vocals] Down to the deep we row! [Chorus] [All Vocals, Anthemic] Oh, heave away, let the timbers roll! The sea is deep but it feeds the soul! We can’t control where the wild wind blows, But we steer the ship where the brave heart goes! [Verse 2] [Lead Baritone] We spend our years chasing distant shores, [Group Vocals] Haul the lines and let 'em go! [Lead Baritone] Forgetting the ocean outside our doors, [Group Vocals] Down to the deep we row! [Lead Baritone] You can map out the stars till your eyes go blind, [Group Vocals] Haul the lines and let 'em go! [Lead Baritone] But you miss all the beauty you leave behind, [Group Vocals] Down to the deep we row! [Chorus] [All Vocals, Anthemic] Oh, heave away, let the timbers roll! The sea is deep but it feeds the soul! We can’t control where the wild wind blows, But we steer the ship where the brave heart goes! [Instrumental Interlude] [Fiddle and acoustic guitar join the beat] [Verse 3] [Lead Baritone] The storms will come and the skies will crack, [Group Vocals] Haul the lines and let 'em go! [Lead Baritone] But you can't sail forward if you're looking back, [Group Vocals] Down to the deep we row! [Lead Baritone] So patch up the canvas and bail the hold, [Group Vocals] Haul the lines and let 'em go! [Lead Baritone] A life un-lived is a tale un-told, [Group Vocals] Down to the deep we row! [Chorus] [All Vocals, Maximum Energy] Oh, heave away, let the timbers roll! The sea is deep but it feeds the soul! We can’t control where the wild wind blows, But we steer the ship where the brave heart goes! [Bridge] [Lead Baritone, Slower Tempo] When the voyage is over and we strike the sail, [Group Vocals] Haul the lines and let 'em go! [Lead Baritone] It’s not about the gold, it’s the rugged tale! [Group Vocals, Building Intensity] Down to the deep we row! [Outro] [A cappella, slowing down] Yeah, we steer the ship where the brave heart goes! (Stomp! Stomp! Hold) [End]
