The Boat Song

Jeremy Warmsley

Text File

Tuning is altered. Each string is tuned a half step down. (Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb) Am Am7 Am Am7 We played a while, in the sand Dm Em 'Til it rained and the floods began Am Am7 Am Am7 For forty days it was Biblical Dm Em Had the idea of the building of boats And there was F G One boat for you and one boat for me Em Am G D We sailed away on the never ending sea Am Am7 Am Am7 Caught a glimpse of your sail so wide Dm Em I tried to signal but you sailed on by Am Am7 Am Am7 Was it a ghost or a trick of the light? Dm Em Or are you sleeping in the ocean tonight? And we had F G One bed for you and one bed for me Em Am G D We sleep alone on the never ending sea Am Am7 Am Am7 And if I ever see the solid ground Dm Em I know I won't be turning around Am Am7 Am Am7 Seems so strange that I played with you Dm Em Now my hands are harder and my heart is true And there was F G One rule for you and one rule for me Em Am G D Always alone on the never ending sea (Am, Am7, Am, Am7, Dm, Em) x2 [Aha-ah-ah-ah Ahh-ah-ah] F G One boat for you and one boat for me Em Am G D We sailed away on the never ending sea Am Am7 Am Am7 The rains lifted and I saw you were near Dm Em But now I'd rather go alone from here Am Am7 Am Am7 Back to the sandbox, back to play Dm Em Still I remember the parting of the ways And we had F G One bed for you and one bed for me Em Am Am7 Am Am7 Am Always alone on the deep, never ending sea
