[Intro 1]
[G][Gm][Eb][Gm][F][G][Eb][Gm][F]
[G][Gm]

[Verse 1]
[Eb]I'm
unde[Gm]cided [F]about [G]you again
[Eb]Mightn't be right that you're
[C]not [Eb]here
It's double- sided,
'cause I [Dm]ruined it all
But also [Faug]saved myself by n[C#aug]ever believi[A]ng you,[Bb]
dear
[G]

[Verse 2]
[Eb]Everything good I deem [F]too
good to be [G]true
[Eb]Everything [Gm]else is just [C]a bore[Eb]
Everything I have to look [Dm]forward to
Has a [Faug]pretty painful and v[C#aug]ery
im[Dm]posing be[Bb]fore

[Verse 3]
[Dm]O' sailor, why'd[Am] you do it?
[Em]What'd you do that for?
[Dm]Saying there's nothi[Am]ng to it
And then [F]letting it go [Em]by the boards
[Dm]O' sailor, why'd[Am] you do it?
[Em]What'd you do that [Dm]for?
Saying there's [Am]nothing to it
And then [F]letting it go [Em]by
the boards
[G][Gm]

[Verse 4]
[Eb]I have, too,
been playing [F]with fifty- two [G]cards
[Eb]Just 'cause I [Gm]play so far
[C]from my [Eb]vest
Whatever I've got,
I've got no [Dm]reason to guard
[Faug]What could I do but [C#aug]spend my best?[A][Bb]

[Verse 5]
[Dm]O' sailor, why'd[Am] you do it?
[Em]What'd you do that [Dm]for?
Saying there's [Am]nothing to it
And then [F]letting it go [Em]by the boards
[Dm]O' sailor, why'd[Am] you do it?
[Em]What'd you do that [Dm]for?
Saying there's [Am]nothing to it
And then [F]letting it go [Em]by the boards

[Verse 6]
[Ab]
And [Fm]after waiting,
fight[Cm]ing patiently on my knees
[Ab]All the other stuff [Fm]tired itself o[Gm]ut first,
and not me
[Ab]And in its wake, appeare[Fm]d
the touch and call
[Cm]Of a different breed[C]
[Eb]One who set to get me [Dm]wise,
and got me [D]there

[Interlude 1]
And then, got me
[G][Eb][Gm]
[F][G][Gm][Eb][Gm][F][G]

[Verse 7]
[Eb]Oh, what a t[Gm]hing,
to know [F]what could be [G]instead[Gm]
[Eb]Oh, what a b[Gm]lessed c[C]urse; to see
[Eb]It took the agenda from
its [Dm]place in my bed
[Faug]Made a merry par[C#aug]a mour of me[Bb]

[Verse 8]
[Dm]O' sailor, why'd[Am] you do it?
[Em]What'd you do that for?
[Dm]Saying there's nothi[Am]ng to it
And then [F]letting it go [Em]by the boards
[Dm]O' sailor, why'd[Am] you do it?
[Em]What'd you do that [Dm]for?
Giving me [Am]eyes to view it
[F]As it goes by [Em]the boards

[Verse 9]
[Dm]O' sailor, why'd[Am] you do it?
[Em]What'd you do that for?
[Dm]Saying there's nothi[Am]ng to it
And then [F]letting it go [Em]by the boards
[Dm]O' sailor, why'd[Am] you do it?
[Em]What'd you do that for?
[Dm]Saying there's nothi[Am]ng to it
And then [F]letting it go [Em]by

[Verse 10]
the boards
[Em]O' sailor,
[Dm]why'[Am]d you do it?[Em]
What'd you do that [Dm]for?
Giving me [Am]eyes to view it
[F]As it [Em]goes by [Dm]the boards
O' sailor, why'd [Am]you do it?
[Em]What'd you do [Dm]that for?
Giving me [Am]eyes to view it
[F]As it goes [Em]by the boards
