I know a boy who sailed around the world
E                    A
started off with his cat
   Bm                  D
he fell in love with a girl
    E                    A
now what do you think of that?
     Bm           D
they visited many lands
    E                  A
madagascar, tonga, and france
    Bm               D
but now he lives all alone
     E              D
in a rusty old houseboat
          A
and there floats
B7             E
out in the san pablo bay
        D             A
when he goes, I won't know
B7                         E
but she'll write him every day
  D A D A D A E A D A D A D A E A
todaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
  A        Bm             D
today he's fishing in his spot
    E            A
but never a fish caught
    Bm                D
she brought him sandwiches
    E               A
and scared away the fish
    Bm            D
how could he understand
        E            A
she's a lover of the land
       Bm           D
he's a lover of the sea
          E                    D
they were lovers that couldn't be
        A
sailor, go
B7                   E
give her the time of day
       D             A
if you go, don't you know
B7                     E
she'll write you every day
      D         A             D       A
but I said it before and I'll say it again
      D       A      E          A
don't ever go out to sea with a friend
  D         A             D       A
I said it before and I'll say it again
      D       A      E      A         D     
don't ever go out to sea without your pen

would you sail with me, would you sail with me
D                   E
