A (x02220@1)            D (xx0232@1)        EI (022100@1)awake from a long, deep sleep
A (x02220@1)                         D (xx0232@1)       EIn (022100@1)a leaky little boat on a wide blue sea
F#m (244222@1)            D (xx0232@1)     EI (022100@1)spy no island, rock or shore
A (x02220@1)                            D (xx0232@1)                      EAnd (022100@1)the sea, she's a-comin' to me through a hole in the floor


D (xx0232@1)                          A (x02220@1)     EAnd (022100@1)the tide come in and the tide go out

F#m (244222@1)                          D (xx0232@1)      EAnd (022100@1)the sky turn black and the sky turn blue
A (x02220@1)                        D (xx0232@1)     EI (022100@1)got no pail, no sail, no anchor, too

This is the same as the first part of the verses. It is strummed up-down-up on the A's
D's. E can be just one stroke.

This fill is played over these chords and comes up more throughout the song with variations.

The verse is strummed the same way as the above part. Up-down-up on the A's, D's, and
one strum on the E's.


And as I wake I look around
I have no notion where I'm bound
So many different colored boats I see
Are all leaky, lonely and driftin'
Just like me

At the end the music stops then there is just a rhythmic tap on the dummer's high hat
a few seconds. Then the guitar comes in with something like this:

| E A D A D |    Repeated several times 
lyrics.
