[Verse]
Am           G             C           Em
Crossing the ocean, to the land of the free
           Am          F            G         Em
We've been traveling a long time in search of Liberty
           Am                   G
We've been famished, we've been starved
           C          Em
We've been beaten and scarred
          F                G         Am           Em
Left with no choice but to leave the homeland
           Am             G
Oh there's nothing for us left
   C        Em
No hope, no bread
   Am               F
No crop for us to harvest
   G                 Em
No chance of getting fed
        Am             G          C           Em
So I'll travel, I will go on this coffin ship oh
        F            G          Am
Drink a health to my loved ones behind

[Chorus]
F               C
Sail me into my dreams
         F                         C
Rockabye ship won't you send me to sleep
Am        F                           C
Send me a sign, let me know you're at peace
                      D                     F
and I'll keep writing letters and songs til we're free
G           Am
Until we're free…
        G   C                Em
You and me, until Ireland is free
          Am              F          G                Em
And we'll dance and we'll sing, the way it's meant to be
          Am              G             C             Em
And we'll laugh and we'll cry and we'll drink the bar dry
F                G          Am
Reminisce on our loved ones behind

[Chorus]
Am
Oh…
F               C
Sail me into my dreams
         F                         C
Rockabye ship won't you send me to sleep won't you 
Am        F                           C
Send me a sign, let me know you're at peace
                      D                     F
and I'll keep writing letters and songs til we're free
G           Am
Until we're free…

[Chorus]
F               C
Sail me into my dreams
         F                         C
Rockabye ship won't you send me to sleep
Am        F                           C
Send me a sign, let me know you're at peace
                      D                     F
and I'll keep writing letters and songs til we're free
G           Am
Until we're free…
