FA# DOb/DO#
I'm leaving my family
FA# MIbm7
leaving all my friends
FA# SOL#7
my body's at home
SOL#m9/FA# DO#7
but my hearts in the wind
FA# DOb/DO#
where the clouds are like headlines
FA# MIbm7
on a new frontpage sky
FA# SOL#7
my tears are salt water
SOL#m9/FA# DO#7 FA#
and the moons full and high
And I know Martin Eden's
gonna be proud of me
many before me
has been drawn by the sea
To be up in the crow's nest
singing my say
Shiver me Timbers
as I'm sailing away
MIbm7
/Now the fog's lifting
RE7/SIb
and the sand's shifting
FA#/DOb SOL#9
I'm drifting on out
Old captain Ahab
DO#7sus4 DO#7
he ain't got nothing on me
{repeat chords as above}
So swallow me , follow me
I'm travelling alone
Blue waters my daughter
I'm gonna skip like a stone
so please call my misses
tell her not to cry
'cause my googbye is written
by the moon in the sky
Nobody knows me
I can't fathom my stayin'
shiver me timbers
as I'm sailing away
/Now the fogs liftin'......
I'm leaving my family
leaving all my friends
my body's at home
but my hearts in the wind
where the clouds are like headlines
on a new frontpage sky
shiver me timbers
as I'm sailing goodbye........
