Girl Sailor Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]The[G] gutter may profess i[D]ts love[G]
Then follow it with [Bm]hesita[C]tion[G]
For there are just so [Bm]many of
[D]You out there for rent
[C][D]

[Verse 2]
[G]
A stronger girl would [D]shake
this off in [G]flight
And never give it [Bm]more than
a frown[C]ing [G]hour
But you have let your [Bm]heart decide
[D]Loss has conquered you
[C][D]

[Verse 3]
[C]
You've won [D]one too many [C]fights
Wearing [D]many hats [G]every [C]time
But you [D]won't win here [G]tonight
[C][D]

[Verse 4]
[G]
You made it through
[D]the direst of straits alright
[G]Can you help it if plain lov[Bm]e now
seems less [C]interesting?[G]
You haven't changed an
[Bm]ounce in my eyes
And I [D]cannot lecture you
[C][D]

[Verse 5]
[G]
And does anything I [D]say seem
relevant [G]at all?
You've been at the [Bm]helm
since you were [C]just [G]five
While I cannot [Bm]claim to be more
than a pas[D]senger
[C][D]

[Verse 6]
[C]
But, you've [D]won one [G]too many [C]fights
Wearing [D]all of your clothes
at [C]the same time
Let the [D]good times [G]in [D]to [Em]night
Oh [F]girl sailor don't [C]sink her

[Interlude 1]
This time
[D][C][Bm][D][C][Bm][D]
[C][G][D]
[G][Bm][C][G]
[Bm][D][C][D]
[G][D][G][Bm][C]
[G][Bm][D]
[Em]

[Verse 7]
Just a mo[F]ment or two from [Em]now
Not [F]a mind will retain even [Em]a trace
Of [F]the thoughts that I struggle to [C]tell
And how our [D]stack of cards just [G]fell

[Verse 8]
So settle this once [D]and for all
[G]The light no longer shows
[Bm]the cracks around my [C]door[G]
And I have no lan[Bm]tern to light
your way home [D]tonight
[C][D]

[Verse 9]
[C]
You are not [D]some saint
[G]who's abo[C]ve
Giving [D]someone a stroll
[G]through the[D] flo[C]wers
You've [D]got so much
[G]more to [D]dream [Em]of
Oh [F]girl sailor, don't [C]sink her
This [D]time[C][Bm][D]
This [C]time[Bm]
[D]This time
[Bm][D]
