The Sailor (by Johnny McEvoy) Capo 5 gets Dm
Verse 1
Am G
And it’s all very well said the sailor
F G Am
But I’ve sailed many miles o’re the sea
Am G
And I thought I had left you behind me
F G Am
But somehow it wasn’t to be
C G
But I knew that I’d never forget you
F G Am
Tho’ it’s years since I last saw your face
Am G
But I thought you at least would remember my name
F G Am
When again I returned to this place
[Chorus]
C G Am
And oh how I long for the days that are gone
C G
And the good times that once used to be
C G Am
When you were a girl with the wind in your hair
G Am
And I a lad home from the sea
G Am
And I a lad home from the sea
Verse 2
Am G
As I sailed in the harbor I saw you
F G Am
On the pier where we once used to stand
Am G
But I knew straight away I had lost you
F G Am
For another was holding your hand
C G
As you stood on the dockside before me
F G Am
I could tell by the look in your eyes
Am G
That you just couldn’t place where you last saw my face
F G Am
And that took my poor heart by surprise
[Chorus]
C G Am
And oh how I long for the days that are gone
C G
And the good times that once used to be
C G Am
When you were a girl with the wind in your hair
G Am
And I a lad home from the sea
G Am
And I a lad home from the sea
INSTRUMENTAL Am G F G Am
Verse 3
Am G
So straight away I went down to the bar room down town
F G Am
To the place where the bright lights do shine
Am G
And somewhere within amid the laughter and gin
F G Am
I remembered the nights you were mine
C G
But I should of known you’d forget me
F G Am
The words that we said were untrue
Am G
So I’ll throw back my beer and sail out of here
F G Am
And in time I’ll forget about you
[Chorus]
C G Am
And oh how I long for the days that are gone
C G
And the good times that once used to be
C G Am
When you were a girl with the wind in your hair
G Am
And I a lad home from the sea
G Am
And I a lad home from the sea
