I sail in motion, unsettled ocean, through restful waters and deep [Eb] commotion,
often frightening, unenlightening.
Sail [F] on, sail [G] on, sailor.
I rest the waters, like leptin's waters, sail through the sorrow of life's marauding,
[Eb]
[C] [Eb] unrepenting, often enthused.
Sail [F] on, sail [G] on, sailor.
[D]
Carved like a sewer [Em] rat, known but I sail,
[D]
bought like a crust of [Em] bread, oh, do I wail.
Seldom stumble, never crumble, try to tumble, might crumble.
[G] Feel the stinging, I've been heathen, never ending, [C] unrelenting.
[Am] Heartbreak's [Em] searing, always fearing, never clearing, [Am] [Eb] persevering.
Sail [F] on, sail [G] on, sailor.
I work the seaways, the gale swept seaways,
past the fret-gorters of wicked [Eb] borders, uninspired, [D] drenched in tide.
[Eb] Sail [F] on, sail [G] on, sailor.
[Am] Always feeding, even [Em] breeding, never feeding all my feelings.
Damn the thunder, [G] must I blunder, there's no wonder, all [C] I'm under.
Stop the trying, [Am] and the [Em] lying, and the sighing, [Am] and my dying.
