Gm F I'm undecided about you again Gm C Mightn't be right that you're not here Cm Dm It's double-sided 'cause I ruined it all Dmaj7 Bb Bb7 -But also saved myself by never believing you, Dear Everything good I deem too good to be true Everything else is just a bore Everything I have to look forward to Has a pretty painful and very imposing before Chorus: (twice) Dm Am Em Em-Ebm-Dm O' sailor why'd you do it -What'd you do that for? Dm Am G Saying there's nothing to it -And lettin' it go by the boards I have too been playing with fifty-two cards -Just 'cause I play so far from my vest Whatever I've got, I've got no reason to guard What could I do, but spend my best [Chorus (twice)] Ab Ab/F C/D And after waiting, fighting patiently on my knees Ab Ab/F Cm All the other stuff tired itself out first, not me Ab Ab/F C/D And in its wake, appeared the touch and call of a different breed Eb Cm D Dm One who set to get me wise and got me there and then, got me And what a thing to know what could be instead Oh, what a blessed curse; to see It took the agenda from its place in my bed Made a merry paramour of me [Chorus once] Dm Am Em Em-Ebm-Dm O' sailor why'd you do it -What'd you do that for Dm Am G Giving me eyes to view it -As it goes by the boards
