E minorEm As soon as you paint every last grain of sand, as you soon as you paint every star, D MajorD In the sky, sky, sky, sky, sky, sky, wave bye sugar boats! E minorEm Well, I'm swatting at mosquitoes as they're orbiting me D MajorD I'm orbiting the sun and this goes on and on and on, you see E minorEm This heart of mine is just some, some broke machine D MajorD And when it gets a-goin' and it often gets goin', it starts blowin' steam, here we go again!
riff: Verse 3: E minorEm This rock of ours is just some big mistake D MajorD And we will never know just where we go, or where we have came, from E minorEm This watch of mine is like some sort of void D MajorD Cause when I look in and I shouldn't look in I, I see it swallow my time, oh no there it goes! riff: Verse 4: E minorEm I ain't getting on no fast plane, hell, I ain't getting on no stuffy train D MajorD Sugar boats on the Atlantic are fine, the sugar boats, they're just fine E minorEm I'll stand on the deck so you could see D MajorD I'll stand on the deck you could wave bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye E minorEm bye, bye, bye, bye bye, bye, bye, D MajorD bye, bye, bye, bye bye, bye, bye, E minorEm bye, bye, bye, bye bye, bye, bye, D MajorD bye, bye, bye, bye bye, bye, bye......
