Gm                  F
I'm undecided about you again
Gm                            C
Mightn't be right that you're not here
Eb                           Dm
It's double-sided, cause I ruined it all
                    Db                     Bb
- But also saved myself, by never believing you, Dear


Gm                         F
Everything good, I deem too good to be true

Everything else is just a bore

Everything I have to look forward to
       Db                              Bb
Has a pretty painful and very imposing before


Dm         Am
O' Sailor, why'd you do it
Em
What'd you do that for
Dm             Am
Saying there's nothing to it
              F             Em
And then letting it go by the boards


Dm         Am
O' Sailor, why'd you do it
Em
What'd you do that for
Dm             Am
Saying there's nothing to it

And then letting it go by the boards


Gm                      F
I have too been playing with fifty-two cards
Gm                       C
- Just cause I play so far from my vest
Eb                                 Dm
Whatever I've got, I've got no reason to guard
Db                            Bb
What could I do, but spend my best


Dm         Am
O' Sailor, why'd you do it

F                   Em
And then letting it go by the boards


Ab       Fm                    Cm
And after waiting, fighting patiently on my knees
Ab       Fm                    G
All the other stuff tired itself out first, not me
Ab                  Fm                    Cm
And in its wake, appeared the touch and call
              C
Of a different breed
Eb                    Dm                D
One who set to get me wise, and got me there
D
And then, got me


Gm                    F
And what a thing, to know what could be instead
Gm                    C
Oh, what a blessed curse; to see
Eb                          Dm
It took the agenda from its place in my bed
Db                     Bb
Made a merry paramour of me


Dm         Am
O' Sailor, why'd you do it
Em
What'd you do that for
Dm             Am
Saying there's nothing to it
F                   Em
And then letting it go by the boards
