              Verse: Am F C    
  
Chorus:  Am F C     
         Am G C     
 
Am                      F            C 
My name is Noah and the sea is my home 
Am                              F          C 
And this small wooden boat will be my throne 
Am                                   F                   C 
I'm proud of what I've built and the things that I've done 
Am                         F            C 
And all of the people I've learnt to love 
 
         Am F C 
Singing Noah, Noah 
Am                      F            C 
My name is Judas and my eyes are tired 
Am                        F          C 
And even my presence is a warning sign 
Am                       F             C 
That wherever you go and whatever you do 
Am                    F        C 
Your past will always follow you 
 
         Am F C 
Singing Noah, Noah 
         Am F C 
Singing Noah, Noah 
 
                Am      F 
So why don't we light a fire? 
               Am     G    F 
And oh let the flames grow higher 
                Am      G                  Am   G    F 
So why don't we light a fire and leave the rest behind 
                 Am          C 
Cause life's for living right 
 
         Am F C 
Noah, Noah 
         Am F C 
Singing Noah, Noah 
 
Am                       F         C 
Gotta get busy living or get busy dying 
Am                  G        C 
I'd hate to see you left behind 
Am                     F      C 
Get busy living or get busy dying 
Am                  G        C 
I'd hate to see you left behind 
 
         Am F C 
Singing Noah, Noah (x3) 
 
Am                      F            C 
My name is Noah and the sea is my home 
              Am                   F          C 
Oh, and this small wooden boat will be my throne.
