  Am                           Am     G        Am 
I saw three ships a-sailing in from across the sea 
Am                                   Am   G Am 
Strangers ne'er were welcome but for curiosity 
    Am                Dm        G   Am    Em       G    | G |         
But come they did and when they did ready they did stand  
    Am                                    F       G      Am 
And things would never be the same in our Village on the Sand...

Am                                   Am   G        Am 
When the ships pulled in to dock the villagers did hide  
     Am                          Am        G      Am 
When trouble came it usually was brought upon the tide  
Am               Dm       G  Am        Em     G     | G | 
When the pirates disembarked they were making plans  
         Am                                      F       G      Am 
And from then on things were not the same in our Village on the Sand...

    Am                               Am   G         Am 
The smugglers came into our town and many sought to run  
  Am                               Am      G         Am 
I stood my ground bravely and came face to face with one  
Am              Dm     G    Am        Em       G    | G |  
Time and travel on the seas weathered face and hand  
       Am                          F       G      Am 
He was different than others in my Village on the Sand...

   Am                              Am     G      Am 
He told me of the years he'd spent on the stormy seas  
    Am                           Am    G   Am 
But Then he spoke a poet's words of philosophy 
    Am             Dm      G      Am       Em     G    | G | 
And when he had to leave again he asked me for my hand  
      Am                          F       G      Am 
And I knew I'd never see again my Village on the Sand 
 
Dm       Am       | C G Am Am |
