Kunci Gitar Mickey Newbury - The Sailor

Em             Am    Em
Well, my daddy was a sailor
         D         Em
A sailor just like me
             Am      Em
His wife was like my mother
    C            D      Em
His love was the silver sea

He was just another Sailor
Off to find the world
He was just another Sailor
All his cloth unfurled

        G      D    Em
Singin' la den da n dao
    G        D        Em
The water is deep and it’s wide
    G         D            Em
The ship went down and the Captain drowns
C       D       Em   C  D     Em
Does no good to cry

Am                         Em
Turnin' at the gang plank, he looked me in the eye
         Am                               Em
He said, learn to read the truth son that lies between these lines

I never meet a stranger
Til I've known them for a time
And I'd rather have one penny
Than all the nickel in the brine
Say you double-headed Eagle
Say you can teach me how to fly
      G       D          Em
Well, tell me then where would I go
C        D      Am   
But up into the sky
C        D       Em
But up into the sky

Oh my Daddy was a Sailor
The salt is in my blood
And here I am in Nashville
Bound deep in this mud

I'm singin' la den da n dao
Yes I'm too far out to sea
So I'll sink with him or I'll swim with them
Across this briney deep

Susie’s in the kitchen doin' dishes
Chris and all his toys have gone to bed
Starin' out the window all I wish is
I could hear the words I'm hearin' in my head
