for acoustic guitar players, the underlying chord is Bm.

I had a [Bm]woman ship, I took her overseas
She left her hold unlocked, I had to find a dock
I was a toiler on the sea, I was a toiler on the sea
I was a toiler on the sea, I was a toiler on the sea

E Bm E A (x2)

We didn't [Bm]use cruel words, to navigate cruel seas
The wind was biting hard, at times I had to scream
I was a toiler on the sea, I was a toiler on the sea
I was a toiler on the sea, I was a toiler on the sea

E Bm E A (x2) Bm

[F#] [B5] [A] [B5]And when we [F#]reached the la[B5]nd [A] [B5]we went
A[F#]ground on the roc[B5]ks [A] [B5]Became a [F#]wreck in the [B5]sand[A] [B5]became
A [F#]home for a flo[B5]ck [A] [B5]We ventured [F#]overlan[B5]d [A] [B5]Fought with the
[F#]Alien[B5]s [A] [B5]The young ones [F#]used their hand[B5]s [A] [B5]Pointed the
[F#]Way to a floc[B5]k [A] [B5]A flock of [F#]seagulls[B5] [A] [B5]A flock of
[F#]Seagulls[B5][A][B5][F#][B5][A][B5]

Bm (main riff, discordant variation).

Then we re[Bm]traced our steps, rebuild the woman ship
I took her back up north, I lost her in the fog
I was a toiler on the sea, I was a toiler on the sea
I was a toiler on the sea, I was a toiler on the sea

(repeat until fade).
