[Intro 1]
[C][F][Bb][Eb][Ab][D][C][G][Fsus4][Eb]

[Verse 1]
[G]Once upon a [D]time,
[F]not so long ago
[Em]Oh, I th[C]ough[Cm]t I'd
[Dsus4]reached the end of the l[G]ine
Just when it [D]seemed [F]I could
stand no [C]more[Eb]
[Cm]The drifting g[Dsus4]irl said
she would be [G]mine
[Eb]She came from the [Bb]road,
that is [F]all that I [C]knew
[Am]Golden hair,
[Dsus4]soft eyes and that smile[G][C][G][Eb]
Tenderness and [Bb]love with
[F]understanding [C]groove
[Am]She made a l[Bm]iving seem
so worth[C]while
[Dsus4]Driftin' girl, dri[G]ftin' girl[D][Dsus4]
[C]Feels good lov[Bm]in' [Am]you
[D]Driftin' [G]girl, driftin' [D]girl[Dsus4]
[C]Take me [Bm]driftin' [Am]too
[D]Time [G]knew how we lov[D]ed,
[F]then one day my [C]mind
[Eb]Told[Cm] me I could make[Dsus4]
it on my [G]own
Thinkin' hard of [D]her,
with [F]words that were un[C]kind
[Cm]I told a friend of min[Dsus4]e
she was [G]alone
[Eb]The smile through her [Bb]tears I just
[F]didn't under[C]stand[Am]
Blinded self as [Dsus4]me must have shown[G]
[Eb]But she touched my c[Bb]heek,
[F]gently with her [C]hand
[Am]And turned and disap[Bm]peared
down the [C]road
[Dsus4]Drifting [C]girl,[Dsus4] drifting[G] girl[D]
[Dsus4]Gentle me[C]mory[Bm]
[Am]Drift[Dsus4]in' girl,[G] driftin' girl[D][Dsus4]
[C]Driftin' [Bm]throughout [Am]me[D][C][F][Bb]
[Eb][Ab][C][Fsus4][Eb][F][G][Dsus4][G]
[Eb]Once again my [Bb]mind whis[F]pers in my [C]ear
[Am]An d I can no lo[Dsus4]nger hear a thin[G]g
[Eb]Knowin' what to do, [Bb]every[F]thing is clear[C] I'll[Am]
drift until I [Bm]find her once [C]again[Dsus4]
Driftin' [G]girl, driftin' [Dsus4]girl
[C]Stop a [Bm]while and [Am]wait
[Dsus4]Drift in' gir[G]l, driftin' girl,
[Dsus4]I hope it's[C] not too l[Bm]ate[Am]
[C]Drift[Dsus4]in' girl,[G] driftin' girl,[Dsus4]
[C]sta[Dsus4]rt the li[C]fe anew[Bm][Am]
[C]Driftin'[Dsus4] girl, dr[G]iftin' girl,[D]
[Dsus4]I hope it's[C] not too l[Bm]ate[Am]
[C]Drift[Dsus4] in' girl, dr[G]iftin' girl,
[Dsus4]we starboard[C] away[Bm]
[Am]Drift[C] in[Dsus4]' girl, d[G]riftin' girl,[Dsus4]
I [C]hope it's [Bm]not too [Am]late
[C]Driftin' gir[G]l, driftin' gir[Dsus4]l,
[C]we starboard away
you
