Round The Cape

           G                     C                  G
Well we're going round the cape, gold and shores to find,
                             D
900 miles of wind and waves smashing up the sides.
      G                           C           G
We're going round the cape, there is no other way,
                          C                 D                  G
For trade, and king, and countrymen, we'll brave the foam and spray.


[Chorus]
   C                   G
So tell my love that I'll be back someday.
     D                                   G
It's rock and roll a-, rock and roll a-, rock and roll away.
     C             G               Em
When I return, I swear I'm gonna stay,
   D                                    D        C      G
So rock and roll a-, rock and roll a-, rock and roll away.


[Verse 2]
  G                        C               G
I left my home and land to sail a clipper ship
                                   D
Into the parts of my own map that barely have been writ.
  G                            C             G
I must be out my mind to leave England in my wake,
                                          D                G
But I'll get that silver in my ear, we're goin' round the cape


[Chorus]
   C                   G
So tell my love that I'll be back someday.
     D                                   G
It's rock and roll a-, rock and roll a-, rock and roll away.
     C             G               Em
When I return, I swear I'm gonna stay,
   D                                    D        C      G
So rock and roll a-, rock and roll a-, rock and roll away.


[Bridge]
       C                                Em   D
It's a long way home, but many miles to go.
          C                                  Em      D
There's a gale that's trying to drag us all below.
      C                            Em    D
And I long to dream of any better fate,
    C                                 D
But what awaits the brave around the cape?


[Verse 3]
  G                          C                G
I heard the sailors say, "By God you must be mad.
                                          D
There's waves as tall as houses and the gales'll knock you flat,
    G                               C               G
And when the storm has fled and the fog is thick as mud,
                                    D                G
It's pray for your deliverance and pray you rightly should."


[Chorus]
   C                   G
So tell my love that I'll be back someday.
     D                                   G
It's rock and roll a-, rock and roll a-, rock and roll away.
     C             G               Em
When I return, I swear I'm gonna stay,
   D                                    D        C      G
So rock and roll a-, rock and roll a-, rock and roll away.


[Chorus]
   C                 G
So tell my love that I'll be back someday.
     D                                   G
It's rock and roll a-, rock and roll a-, rock and roll away.
     C             G               Em
When I return, I swear I'm gonna stay,
   D                                    D        C      G
So rock and roll a-, rock and roll a-, rock and roll away.
