Bridge 1:
Seldom Am7stumEmble, never Am7crumEmble
Try to Am7tumbEmle, life's a Am7rumbEmle
Feel the sGtingAm7ing I've been GgivAm7en
Never GendAm7ing, unrelGentiCng
Heartbreak Am7searEming, always Am7fearEming
Never Am7cariEmng, perseAm7veriEmng
Ebmaj7Sail on, sFail on, sGailor
Verse 3:
I work the seaways, the gale-swept seaways
Past shipwrecked daughters of wicked waters
Uninspired, drenched and tired
Sail on, wail on, sailor
Bridge 2:
Always needing, even bleeding
Never feeding all my feelings
Damn the thunder, must I blunder
There's no wonder all I'm under
Stop the crying and the lying
And the sighing and my dying
Sail on, sail on sailor
Coda (repeat to fade):
Ebmaj7Sail on, sFail on, sGailor
