Intro:
Em Bm G ? G G/A
VERSE:
Em Bm
A sailor a sailor did drown my heart
G D G D
because of your thunderous wave goodbye
Em
and I never saw you sleeping
Bm
in your matching shoes
G D G D
So a part of me still thinks you're alive
BRIDGE:
A
and if my mam is feeling better
Bm
we'll take some sandwiches for the road
G D
and we'll drive into the lights on the way home
A
and my dad talks about the weather
Bm
says 'the arse is falling out of the sky'
G A
the day that mary died Oooh
CHORUS:
D G A D
Oh lover! I've got plenty
G A Bm
so why do I feel like
G A
I've got nothing
D G A D G A Bm
oh lover! i'm so empty - who am I now?
G A Bm
tell me who i'm going to be
G A Em
or just give me back me
Em Bm G ? G G/A
VERSE:
Em Bm
My saviour is braver than I can be
G D G D
taking all the weapons out of my mind
Em Bm
and I sing for my supper but I sing for me
G D G D
so a part of me is aching to survive
BRIDGE
CHORUS X2
