Verse:
FF    Dm7Dm7    Gm7Gm7      C7C7
Dear Mr. Roosevelt please let me say
FF      F#dimF#dim    Gm7Gm7  C7C7
I think your navy’s just great
FF     F9F9    Bb majorBb     Bbm6Bbm6
Tell Mrs. Roosevelt this is my day
   FF     Gm7Gm7   Am7Am7  Dm7Dm7
For I just said yes to a boys request
   Gm7Gm7   C7C7     FF   Dm7Dm7  Gm7Gm7  C7C7
To become his first class mate.

 FF        Dm7Dm7        Gm7Gm7   C9C9
Before I went to sleep each night I used to pray
  Gm7Gm7     C majorC        Am7b5Am7b5  D7D7
The only boy for me would someday come my way
  Gm7Gm7         Bbm6Bbm6      Am7Am7 D7(b9)
now that he’s here I’ll love and honor and obey
  Gm7Gm7     C7C7
The sailor of my dreams

   FF          Dm7Dm7        Gm7Gm7  C9C9
When he said “Gee you’re swell” and took me by the hand
 Gm7Gm7       C majorC       Am7b5Am7b5 D7D7
I felt like I was Alice lost in Wonderland
  Gm7Gm7      Bbm6Bbm6     Am7Am7  D7(b9)
Ah-ha! Sweet mystery of life, I understand
  Gm7Gm7  Am7Am7  FF
The sailor of my dreams.

  Dm7Dm7        G7G7   Dm7Dm7      G7G7
In school I thought love not worth speaking of
    Bb7Bb7   Cm7Cm7     Bb7Bb7
It was just for babes in the wood
  Dm7Dm7    G7G7    Dm7Dm7    G7G7
But one little kiss now makes me insist:
   C majorC     AdimAdim    Gm7Gm7   C7C7
It’s good, it’s good, it’s good

  FF        Dm7Dm7     Gm7Gm7  C9C9
As he just took the navy oath to be all mine
   Gm7Gm7        C9C9       Am7b5Am7b5   D MajorD
I’ll darn his socks and wash his shirts until they shine

  Gm7Gm7   Bbm6Bbm6        Am7Am7  D7(b9)
Oh Mr. Roosevelt your fleet is so divine
 Gm7Gm7   C9C9   Am7Am7  D MajorD
I could go on for reams
 Gm7Gm7  C9C9      Am7Am7  D MajorD
About my dream man, my gentle he-man,
  Gm7Gm7   C majorC     Am7Am7     D7D7
The man for me man, my first class seaman
  Gm7Gm7  C7C7 FF     DmDm  Gm7Gm7  Am7Am7  F/CF/C
The sailor of my dreams.
