The Boat Song by Jeremy Warmsley


                     The Boat Song 


Capo:no capo

Tuning is altered. 
Each string is tuned a half step down. (Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb)
 
 
Am                       Am7   Am            Am7
We played a while,          in the sand
 
Dm                            Em
'Til it rained and the floods began
 
Am                  Am7  Am     Am7
For forty days it was Biblical
 
Dm                           Em
Had the idea of the building of boats
 
 
And there was
 
 
 
 
F                                     G
One boat for you and one boat for me
 
Em                                Am   G         D
We sailed away on the never ending sea
 
 
 
Am                            Am7     Am            Am7
Caught a glimpse of your     sail so wide
 
Dm                                  Em
I tried to signal but you sailed on by
 
Am                      Am7     Am                      Am7
Was it a ghost or a           trick of the light?
 
Dm                                     Em
Or are you sleeping in the ocean tonight?
 
 
And we had
 
 
 
 
F                                  G
One bed for you and one bed for me
 
Em                                Am   G         D
We sleep alone on the never ending sea
 
 
 
 
Am                    Am7    Am                  Am7
And if I ever see the      solid ground
 
Dm                         Em
I know I won't be turning around
 
Am                       Am7    Am                    Am7
Seems so strange that I   played with you
 
Dm                                                   Em
Now my hands are harder and my heart is true
 
 
And there was
 
 
 
F                                  G
One rule for you and one rule for me
 
Em                             Am   G         D
Always alone on the never ending sea
 
 
 
 
(Am, Am7, Am, Am7, Dm, Em) x2
[Aha-ah-ah-ah Ahh-ah-ah]
 
 
 
F                            G
One boat for you and one boat for me
 
Em                               Am    G         D
We sailed away on the never ending sea
 
 
 
Am                    Am7  Am                        Am7
The rains lifted and I  saw you were near
 
Dm                               Em
But now I'd rather go alone from here
 
Am                            Am7      Am              Am7
Back to the sandbox,              back to play
 
Dm                            Em
Still I remember the parting of the ways
 
 
And we had
 
 
 
 
F                                  G
One bed for you and one bed for me
 
Em                                      Am    Am7    Am   Am7   Am
Always alone on the deep, never ending sea
