Last night I dreamed of Smugglers Cove
                      G          D
The seabirds all were wheeling
                           G      D
out on the riptide past Discovery Isle
                         A
where killer whales come stealing
                         Bm
where killer whales come stealing

D              G      D
Father took me by the hand
                           G          D
down through the rocks and driftwood
                     G     D
and pirate gold from Five+ Dime
                   A
He caused me to discover
                   Bm
all in a morning's wonder

D                         G          D
Tonight I will fly to the top of the world
                   G          D
Ancient winds will guide me
                               G       D
down the old dim trails to the buffalo range
                    A
the little wolves beside me
                    Bm
the little wolves beside me

D          G         D
There I see the pony herds
                             G        D
and the rires of the whiskey traders
                    G            D
and the golden dust hangs in the air
                                  A
with the screams of the Blackwood raiders
                                  Bm
with thr screams of the Blackfood raiders

     D                  G         D
