A augmentedA E MajorE
the gut of me professes love
A augmentedA C# minorC#m D MajorD
and hollerin' pre secretations
A augmentedA C# minorC#m
but there are just so many of
E MajorE D MajorD E MajorE
you are different
A augmentedA E MajorE
a stronger girl would brush this off in flight
A augmentedA C# minorC#m D MajorD
never giving more than a frowning hour
A augmentedA C# minorC#m
but you have let your heart decide
E MajorE D MajorD E MajorE
loss has conquered you
D MajorD E MajorE D MajorD
and you won one too many fights
E MajorE D MajorD
wearin' many hats every time
E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD E MajorE
but you won't win here tonight
A augmentedA E MajorE
you made it through the direst of straits all right
A augmentedA C# minorC#m D MajorD
can you help it if plain love now seems less interesting
A augmentedA C# minorC#m
but you haven't changed an ounce in my eyes
E MajorE D MajorD E MajorE
and I cannot lecture you
A augmentedA E MajorE
does anything I say seem relevant at all
A augmentedA C# minorC#m D MajorD
you've been at the helm since you were just 5ive
A augmentedA C# minorC#m E MajorE D MajorD E MajorE
and I cannot claim to be more than a passenger
D MajorD E MajorE D MajorD
well you won one too many fights
E MajorE D MajorD
wearin' all of your clothes at the same time
E MajorE F# minorF#m
do you want an end tonight
G+G D MajorD
oh girl, sail and don't sink her
riff(E MajorE D MajorD C#C# A augmentedA BB C#C#)
this time...
riff(E MajorE D MajorD C#C# A augmentedA BB C#C#)
this time...
do do, da das...
(it's late and I'm a little lost in this area, but it picks back up again.
you get the idea.)
just a moment to find out
not a mind will retain even a trace
with the thoughts that we struggle to tell
and now our stack of cards just fell
to settle this one time for all the light
no longer shows the cracks around your door
and I have no lantern to light your way home tonight
you are not some saint who's above
we're not gonna stroll through the flowers
you got so much more to dream of
oh girl, sail and don't sink her
this time...
this time...
this time...
