High and Dry Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]With ladylike devotion
She sails the bitter ocean
[F]If it wasn't for lovesick sailors
There'd be nothin' left
but [C]flotsam

[Verse 2]
Singin' [G]why, me oh [F]my,
is there a [C]better man than [F]I?
I hope you [C]find your way back [G]home
before you're ly[C]in, high and [F]dry
I hope you [C]find your way [G]back
home before you die
[C][F][C]

[Verse 3]
[F]
Her [C]sails below like bubbles
While you sip your daily doubles
If she [F]wasn't so fond of the weather
She might give the deckhands [C]trouble

[Verse 4]
Singin' [G]why, me oh [F]my,
is there a [C]better man than [F]I?
I hope you [C]find your way back [G]home,
before you're ly[C]in, high and [F]dry
I hope you [C]find your way back
[G]home before you die
[F][C]

[Verse 5]
[G]
One [C]day when I grew older
I found I could not hold her
[Em]She [F]took on a fine young skipper
Who soon ran her up on a [C]boulder

[Verse 6]
Singin' [G]why, me oh [F]my,
is there a [C]better man than [F]I?
I hope you [C]find your way [G]back home,before you're lyin,
[C]high and dry[F]
I hope you [C]find your way back [G]home

[Interlude 1]
before you die
[C][F][C][F][C][G]

[Verse 7]
Now, the [C]pleasures of the harbor
Don't include a lady barber
If it [F]wasn't for Long John Silver,all of us
pirates would've been [C]martyrs

[Verse 8]
Singin' [G]why, me oh [F]my,
is there a [C]better man than [F]I?
I hope you [C]find your way [G]back home,before you're ly[C]in,
high and [F]dry
I hope [C]you find your way [G]back home,before you're ly[C]in,
high and [F]dry
I hope you [C]find your way
back [G]home before you [C]die
