here it is now christmas eve
A
and i’m out here on the sea
D
wishing i could be with the family

as the boat tosses to and fro
G
i can see the christmas lights glow
D A D
in our home dear , on our christmas tree

G
christmas at sea , christmas at sea
D
chistmas at sea , christmas at sea
A
oh how i miss my family
D
it’s the time of good cheer
G
but i miss the ones so dear
D A D
for i’m spending my christmas at sea

D
oh a sea man’s bound to roam
A
and he’s very seldom home
D
for he makes his living on the phone

but when christmas bells ring
G
and the church choir sings
D A D
oh his heart longs to spend christmas at home

G
christmas at sea , christmas at sea
D
chistmas at sea , christmas at sea
A
oh how i miss my family
D
it’s the time of good cheer
G
but i miss the ones so dear
D A D
for i’m spending my christmas at sea

G
christmas at sea , christmas at sea
D
chistmas at sea , christmas at sea
A
oh how i miss my family
D
it’s the time of good cheer
G
but i miss the ones so dear
D A D
for i’m spending my christmas at sea
D A D
oh i’m spending my christmas at sea
