Ludo
The Boat Song
You're Awful, I Love You

Note: This is one of my favorite Ludo songs, but most people don't know it exists (for
of you who don't, the track is hidden at the 5:20 mark on "In Space").  Anyway, these are
chords to the song, which is finger-picked, and it sounds best that way.  I suggest 
to the song a few times to get the rhythm.


F
To the left of me's the sketch you drew

F                                Dm         G
And to the right I see that book I lent you

   C        Bb          F
To help you through the night

F
The black of charcoal on my thumbs

F                                Dm         G     C
But with any luck you'll see the light that comes

Bb        F
From open eyes

F
It's All Hallows Eve

C       Bb    Dm            G
Hold my hand, ahead there's land

      C       Bb                                 F
We'll row the boat and leave it on the other shore

F
Through the wreckage of my college years

F                                 Dm       G     C
I made sure to hold close both my hate and fears

  Bb       F
Of letting go

F
I told you Sunday just how long it's been

F                                    Dm      G  C
You confessed to me fears you'd been holding in

   Bb       F
Now we both know

F
It's all fine with me

C       Bb    Dm            G
Hold my hand, ahead there's land

      C       Bb                                F
We'll row the boat and leave it on the other shore

C           Bb         Dm       G
Through the fall, come hell and all

      C       Bb                                F
We'll row the boat and leave it on the other shore
