Chords for Son of a Sailor - Jimmy Buffett Live in Key West 2/11/23

_ _ _ Who wants a pick? _
I have [Eb] to change picks now to the [B] _ sturdy 12 string guitar [G] play _
Flick?
_ Did I say flick?
Hey [Ebm] nobody, was that [G] pick or flick?
_ Okay
[C] _ You [Ab] gotta have a 12 string guitar if you're gonna [F] play sailor music, you know that?
[Gb] _ _ I know we got some sailors in the house [Gb] and we got some [Eb] flying sailors out [Gb] there at Boca Chica Air [N] Station out there
Thank you all for your service Navy _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Em] I've done a little [F] flying out there just to make sure we've got the [Db] keys safe, you know, [G] so anyway
This little [Gb] song actually come from a long line of sailors and and [C] they naval [Eb] officers
I don't know what happened to me.
I just picked up this guitar instead [F] and seemed to work
[E] So anyway, [Eb] this is something called son of a son of a sailor and all of that [Em] is true _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ The sailors everywhere
And _ [G] _ _
my dear friend Tom Garza from Key West
[F] Sail on [C] Tom
_ _ _ [G] _ As the son of a son of a sailor
I [C] went out on the sea for [G] adventure
_ _ [C] Expanding the view of the cathetic world
Like [D] a man just released [G] from indenture
_ As a dreamer of dreams and a traveling man
[F] I'm choked [C] up and I'm [G] out
I'm choked up and I'm out
[C] Great does it to boast the [G] doubt
He who defrauds hath [D] learned
From both their dears now
[G] _ [C] Son of a [F] son
Son of a son
Son of a son
Of a sailor
[G] _ [F] Son of a [C] God
Though the last thought
Was step ahead
[A] Of the tailor
[G] _ Now I am learning The future
_ _ [C] Southeast of the [G] shore
_ You [C] can shake the hand
[G] Of the mango man
As [D] he greets you [G] at the [Em] border
[G] _ And the ladies he has been true
_ _ [F] I [C] know that was [G] _ Spicy
[C] What's awful to me
[G] Still I'm a sweet
And the [D] love is for all
[G] That [C] finds [G] it
You've got a whole machine
[C] To ride on the wind
Therefore how the start
Has [G] been [C] borne
_ [G] _ In the bell's ring
[C] As the tide rips and sinks
It's the son of a God
[A] Of a poor [G] man
_ [F] _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ Lord of all _
_ _ _ _ [G] Remind me where's my horse
I'd like to
_ [C] I'll squeeze the blong
[G] Always searching for stone
Not [D] a lawyer, a thief, [G] or a [C] banker
_ [G] I'm still
Son of a son
[C] Son of a son
Son of a son
Of a [G] sailor
[A] The seeds in my [C] veins
And my tradition remains
I'm just glad I don't [A] live in a trailer
[G] _ _ [F] _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
