Boston And St Johns


My first chording effort - apologies for errors, etc! Done from listening to the album version, so no idea if this actually looks like the official version... Note: the melody starts on a D, while the guitar is playing E minor. This feels very wrong til you get used to it. I think it sounds better if you sit heavily on the low end: you really want that underlying E - F - G on the low E string. Chords used: Em 022000 D/F 200230 G 320033 A x02220 Intro: Em - D/F - G - (G) Em - D/F - G - A x2 [Oohs] Verse 1: Em D/F G Girl don't tell me that it's morning Em D/F G (A) Can we keep the curtains drawn? Em D/F G I haven't given you fair warning Em D/F G A But our ship, it sails at dawn Chorus: D/F A G A And it's true I must be going, but I swear it won't be long D/F A G A There isn't that much ocean between Boston and St. Johns Em D/F A D/F (?) I'm a rover, and I'm bound to sail away G A (->Em...) I'm a rover can you love me anyway? [1x intro passage] Verse 2: Em D/F G And if some suitor comes approaching Em D/F G (A) Will you let him through your door? Em D/F G What if I return half-broken? Em D/F G A Will you still love me any more? Chorus: D/F A G A And it's true I must be going, but I swear it won't be long D/F A G A There isn't that much ocean between Boston and St. Johns Em D/F A D/F (?) I'm a rover, and I'm bound to sail away G A (->Em...) I'm a rover can you love me anyway? [1x intro passage] Bridge: Em D/F Close your eyes and dream G A And tell me what you see D/F A You can tell me what you want G A Just tell me that you'll wait for me Em D/F G... But oh... Don't tell me that it's morning... [repeat verse 1 & chorus] [Outro - loop intro and get quieter. Last chord the Em?]
