Em Am 


VERSE 1
********
Em        Am                          Em
Times are dark now, our empire's gone astray
            Am                        Em
Forces from down south, armada on the way
               Am                      Em
So we call our greatest men to run the barricade
                       Am                              Em
Shine your light where shadows fall and wash the night away

CHORUS

A
Sail on for your queen

Sail into history
                      E
You will never be the same
A
Sail on for country

Into our memory
                        C
Time will remember your name
D             Em
Dragon on the sea

Em                Am                Em
Fires burn now in once our tranquil bays
                Am                         Em
Tall ships that rain down thunderbolts and flames
                  Am                          Em
Go and raise your pirate flag, cast the lines away
                      Am                                   Em
Take your fleet where darkness falls and turn the night to day

While the waking world is sleeping, dragon ships are sailing on
