     C              G          F             C
The truth hits everyone like a million atom bombs
    C             G                      F     C
And I can’t understand how everybody can be so calm
  C              G            F            C
Time is running out and they all just sit around
    C                  G                  F            C
So leave your message at the beep because I am leaving town
   C              G         F            C
Tell my girl I’m sorry but daddy’s gotta roam
     C           G                 F                   C
The only time I feel at ease is a thousand miles from home
  C                G            F               C
Tell the boys when I get back, whiskey shots on me
         C            G                   F              C
But for now I got no time to spare and I got no time to bleed


[Chorus]
     F         G         C             Am
So raise your glass to a life off the grid
  F                     G            C
Raise full sails, pull anchor dead ahead
  F                  G              C      Am
Starboard towards a future that is always unknown
     F               G                      C
And when this vessel sinks I’ll finally be home


[Verse 2]
 C              G              F              C
Another night, another town, another show to play
 C               G              F                   C
Another friend, another pint, another girl’s heart breaks
  C              G         F           C
Drunk tired and starving, lost with no money
       C                      G                   F                  C
But a stage and a crowd and a microphone is all we really need to be free
    C              G        F              C
So buy us another shot and throw us in the van
       C                G                      F                 C
If you give us no destination you’re giving us something we understand


[Chorus]
    F          G          C           Am
So raise your glass to a life off the grid
  F                     G           C
Raise full sails, pull anchor dead ahead
  F                  G              C      Am
Starboard towards a future that is always unknown
     F                G                     C
And when this vessel sinks I’ll finally be home


(not sure about this next bit but it mostly seems right)

    C           G           Am      F
Now we’ve been drinking for way too long
     C             G        Am
Pineapples and Gin pouring strong
     C        G         Am    F
And we’ve no money for gas-o-lean
    C        G             Am
On me, live together, die free


    F          G          C           Am
So raise your glass to a life off the grid
    F                   G          C
Raise full sails, pull anchor dead ahead
    F                 G            C        Am
Starboard towards a future that is always unknown
    F                 G                     C
And when this vessel sinks I’ll finally be home
