Intro Chords: G-Bm-C-D

Verse 1:
G                         Bm 
Sailor's coming home again from over the ocean.
C                      D                        
He's been away so long, he's forgotten his name.
G                            Bm
Left it in a heart somewhere, no one to remind him.
C                     D
Sold it to a stranger, she took it away.
C                              D
There comes a time when you understand.
C                           D
Falling in love, is part of the plan.


Chrous:
                 G 
And you can stay awake tonight,
               Bm
Thinking up a dozen names.
               C
But I can only sleep in your arms.
                          D                           
So when I stay awake I'll sail those same oceans again.


Verse 2:

So when I tilt my hat, to the breeze of the evening.

Succumb to the flowers, who say they'll marry me.

Then my lover walk away, hang us like a painting.

So there's no more changes. No more, tales of the sea.

You got to get out, well I understand.

Falling apart, wasn't part of the plan.


Chrous:
                 G 
And you can stay awake tonight,
               Bm
Thinking up a dozen names.
               C
But I can only sleep in your arms.
                          D                           
So when I stay awake I'll sail those same oceans again.


(Trumpet Solo: G-Bm-C-D Progression)
C                             D 
You got to get out, well I understand.
C                                   D
Losing yourself, wasn't part of the plan.


Verse 3:
G                         Bm 
Sailor's coming home again from over the ocean.
C                      D                        
He's been away so long, he's forgotten his name.
G                           Bm
Left it in a bar somewhere, one drunken evening.
C                              D
If you talk to strangers baby, you might not come home.
C                               D
There comes a time, when you understand.
C                          D   
Falling in love,is part of the plan.


Chrous:
                 G 
And you can stay awake tonight,
               Bm
Thinking up a dozen names.
               C
But I can only sleep in your arms.
                          D                           
So when I stay awake I'll sail those same oceans again.
                 G 
And you can stay awake tonight,
               Bm
Thinking up a dozen names.
               C
But I can only sleep in your arms.
                          D                           
So when I stay awake I'll sail those same oceans again.

***********************************************************************
Not 100% on the lyrics, but the chords seem to feel right. One note, if
you play this solo on acoustic, you might want to add a D9 towards the 
end of the D to G chord change to fill it in a bit, up to you. Enjoy!
