A5
Build me a boat deep in your heart,
       C5                  G5                       A5
On the currents of your soul, I will row, I will chart
A5  
My journey will be, this story my own
        C5               G5                  A5
As we wander side by side into the great unknown


A5  
Throw me a bone, cast me a line
          C5                    G5                   A5
Light my cigarette and I will open your bottle of wine
A5
But I won't taste a drop, won't make a scene
       C5                     G5                      A5
I will live my life on the edge of that gorgeous ravine


CHORUS:
    E5  G5          C5              D5
But oh, would it be to hold the sun?
   E5      G5          D5                    C5         A5
Oh, it aint me, your light shines down on everyone



Sing me a tune about me and you 
Sing of the holy road and the phases of the Aries moon
But don't string me along, don't shelter me where I stand
Yeah, I know what it's like to be the one with the hammer in your hand

CHORUS:
But oh, would it be to hold the sun?
Oh, it aint me, your light shines down on everyone
My baby the sun

So, build me a boat deep in your heart
Hold me there forever more, long after we part
'Cause I'm reading the birds, walking a line
You will live in me, my darlin', till the end of time

CHORUS:
But oh, would it be to hold the sun?
Oh, it aint me, your light shines down on everyone
My baby the sun
