Chords with lyrics
C F
stowaway
G7 C
Upon my ship on Christmas Day
Am Dm G7
I was fair so I gave him a chance
C F
You shouldn't be here what's your tale
G7 C
I ought to throw you to the whale
Am Dm
He just smiled and said
G7
Come here let's dance
Chorus:
C F C
He said Borrow or steal I'll find a way
F C G7
To be with my lover upon Christmas Day
C F C
And I'll run and I'll roam I'll cover the ground
F C G7 C
This Christmas I'll see you I'll be around
C F
He told me 'bout his girl back home
G7 C
Waiting patient all alone
Am Dm G7
While we danced I shed a little tear
C F
He closed his eyes all out at sea
G7 C
I think he danced with her not me
Am Dm G7
I'll just have to wait another year
#return to chorus
#key change
G
D G
I think of him now and again
A7 D
I wonder how his journey ends
Bm Em A7
As I sail by upon my lonesome sea
D G
That stranger with the haunting face
A7 D
Here then gone without a trace
Bm E A7
Lying with his love that's where he'll be
#Chorus in D
D G D
Beg borrow or steal I'll find a way
G D A7
To be with my lover upon Christmas Day
D G D
And I'll run and I'll roam I'll cover the ground
G D A7 D
This Christmas I'll see you I'll be around
G D A7 D
