Wish I could sail in a big black boat

But Sylvia said come to bed
FF    C majorC  DmDm G+G    C majorC
It's so good to have you here

Sometime ago, when time past so slow
Too weak to know where to go
But now thinking back on what strikes me the most
Is I've made up my mind long before

Chorus

So I'll cope with you, don't cope at all
So let's leave it all to the chef
Please send my regrets in case I forget
To PO Box nobody home

Chorus
