This is GALLEON's themesong. It tells you all you need to know about our band in a four-minute nutshell. We've sailed across the stormy seas of the music industry long enough. Now we just want peace, tranquility, and a big-money long-term recording contract and concert tour!
lyrics
G A L L E O N
(Steve Rondell/Mark Filowitz/Scott Tuchband)
Moderately fast hard rock in key of F#m
F#m D E F#m
F#m D E F#m
(Hook: C# E F# A G# F# E F#)
F#m
Sailed across the seven seas,
D E F#m
Grinned upon white gulls of freedom,
F#m
Searchin' ... for a gem called peace,
D E F#m
In a rootless, floating fantasy.
E F#m
Zanzibar ... was a far cry from the North!
E F#m
And Asia's as old ... as the New World is young!
F#m D E F#m
On a Galleon we lived ... two hundred men strong.
F#m D E F#m
Together we sailed ... strung out on the ocean!
E F#m
Winds cut our masts ... the skies, they are blackened.
E F#m
Our ship takes in sea ... water in the hold grows deeper.
A D
But look there in the distance ... a strong Galleon lay.
A D D (3)
Amid the crashing waves ... lads, she's coming our way.
A D
When she comes for the rescue, we'll take over the crew,
E D C G A
And with sabres held high, yeah, we'll sail on anew.
C G A C G A A B C#
We'll sail on anew ... we'll sail on anew ... oh, oh, oh, yeah!
(Hook)
Lead break: F#m D E F#m (4x)
F#m
Take supplies from the mother country,
D E F#m
From France we'll take gold,
F#m
And make camp on the Spanish coast,
D E F#m
With our Galleon of old!
E F#m
Winds cut our masts ... the skies, they are blackened.
E F#m
Our ship takes in sea ... water in the hold grows deeper.
A D
But look there in the distance ... a strong Galleon lay.
A D D (3)
Amid the crashing waves ... lads, she's coming our way.
A D
When she comes for the rescue, we'll take over the crew,
E D C G A
And with sabres held high, yeah, we'll sail on anew.
C G A C G A A B C#
We'll sail on anew ... we'll sail on anew ... oh, oh, oh, yeah!
