Sailing
by Jerry Jeff Walker

Spoken by Jerry Jeff:
Well, there I am in Mexico, man,
I'm sittin' on a big hot rock------with the blues,
Watchin' this sailboat drive by, and I'm wonderin', "Where's mine?"
Hell, I know where there's ship in a bottle,
I mean a schooner with a worm on board, yeah.

Chorus:
F*
I think I'm gonna go off sailing
CI (x32010@1)think I'm gonna go off sailing
F (133211@1)                      bass line: F (133211@1)E (022100@1)   Dm7

*The song may very well be in E, since it seems tuned about half-way between
E and F.
