O  Sailor Chords by Fiona Apple

O Sailor chords by Fiona Apple

Guitar chords with lyrics

Intro: Gm F Gm C Cm Dm Dmaj7 Bb Bb7

Gm                  F
 I'm undecided about you again
Gm                      C
 Mightn't be right that you're not here
Cm                          Dm
 It's double-sided 'cause I ruined it all
         Dmaj7
But also saved myself
                        Bb   Bb7
By never believing you, Dear

(same goes..)
Everything good I deem too good to be true
Everything else is just a bore
Everything I have to look forward to
Has a pretty painful and very imposing before

Dm         Am
O' sailor why'd you do it
Em                     Em-Ebm-Dm
What'd you do that for
Dm              Am
Saying there's nothing to it
          G
And then lettin' it go by the boards

(same goes.....)
O' sailor why'd you do it
What'd you do that for
Saying there's nothing to it
And then lettin' it go by the boards

I have too been playing with fifty-two cards
Just 'cause I play so far from my vest
Whatever I've got, I've got no reason to guard
What could I do but spend my best

O' sailor why'd you do it
What'd you do that for
Saying there's nothing to it
And then lettin' it go by the boards

O' sailor why'd you do it
What'd you do that for
Saying there's nothing to it
And then lettin' it go by the boards

G#    G#/F                      C/D
  And after waiting, fighting patiently on my knees
G#            G#/F                    Cm
 All the other stuff tired itself out first, not me
G#                G#/F                   C/D
 And in its wake appeared the touch and call of a different breed
Eb                    Cm               D
One who set to get me wise and got me there and
         Dm
then, got me

And what a thing to know what could be instead
Oh what a blessed curse to see
It took the agenda from its place in my bed
Made a merry paramour of me

O' sailor why'd you do it
What'd you do that for
Saying there's nothing to it
And then lettin' it go by the boards

O' sailor why'd you do it
What'd you do that for
Giving me eyes to view it
As it goes by the boards
