Intro: E E So the wind that blows across your room, A Carried cheap perfume onto your dresser, E It rained for jewelery and for credit cards, A E Two tickets to a film I don't remember, A One day you'll kiss your rabbit's nose, pick up the phone, E To find I've been turned over, A You grab that piece of gold, E Only to find that the smell has taken over, A And all the things you had, B7 They aren't the same E As what you hold E Now I'm standin' in a room, A That's filled with older folks, E They're pleading baby listen, E And I scream as loud as anyone, A But when asked to make a point, E I tend to whisper A Now highways turn to tidal waves, E And they're asking me to export all of your insecurities, A But that wind that blows across your room, it's gonna set the sails, E B7 And send me back to you, ooh, Chorus: E Sometimes, when sailors are sailin', they, A Think twice, about where they're anchorin' E And I think, I could make better use, A Of my time on land, E I'll drink less, Cause Lord knows I could use a, A Warm kiss instead of a cold goodbye Gb I'm writing the folks back home to tell them, A Hey I'm doing all right Bridge: E A E A B E A E A B Verse: E A It's a shame what your father did, E A B To your brothers head, he smashed it with the E A E A B Telephone E A Your mother got scared and locked the door, E A B E A You were only four, but Lord, you remember it, Dbm B A So now you're scared of love E I'm here to tell you love's not some xxxxing blood on the receiver A Love is speaking in code E It's an inside joke, love is coming home Chorus: E Sometimes, when sailors are sailin', they, A Think twice, about where they're anchorin' E And I think, I could make better use, A Of my time on land, E I'll drink less, Cause Lord knows I could use a, A Warm kiss, Instead of a cold goodbye Gb I'm writing the folks back home to tell them, A Hey I Verse: E Yeah I'm doing alright A Yeah I'm doin' just fine Gb A An' if she seems as lonely as me, Let her sink E Yeah I'm doin' alright, A Yeah I'm doin' just fine, Gb An' if she seems as lonely as me, let her, A Sink, you let her, sink, well let her!
