[Am] [A] [C] [D]
[A] [D]
[A] So in Isabel, with nobody to tell.
So I spent every [D] dime.
[A] So she gives it Anaheim.
[E] [A] It was in the Magic Kingdom.
[D] [A] Now I'm in the Caribbean.
You get something really [D] wicked, when you spend it in E, [E] [A] Kingin.
I had century on the sea, but [G] it's not the life [E] for me.
I was here in 35, so I'm fishing after [A] me.
I was threatened with [G] a knife, but I was very [E] punky.
No time for my life, it's the LFT [A] divide.
[D] [A]
[E] [A] I'm a wreck in the hud, [D] I don't [A] wanna buy a bride.
I'm a hunter that blows.
[D] [A] I want the oldest in my [F] boat.
[E] [A]
I bought [Cm] hair, one of the [A] men.
He said he would be my [Am] friend.
He guide me to the [D] hole, [A] if I cheated him [F] [A] I'd sew.
To the hole I didn't [Cm] make it.
[A] He didn't take it.
He laughed at my [D] plight.
[A] He said you'll be one [F] of us [A] tonight.
I had century on the sea, [G] but it's not the life for me.
[E] I was here in 35, so I'm fishing after me.
[A] I was threatened with a knife, but I was very [E] punky.
No time for my life, it's the LFT [A] divide.
[Am] [A]
[D]
[A] He was right.
[D] [A] I'm still here.
[C#m] [A] Have I happened?
Oh, but yeah.
With my life in the hole, I [D] think I'm a [A] rogue.
I just want to break [E] free.
[A] But I can't get away, no [D] I can't get away.
Get together, I've got the key.
[A] No one else until I tell.
[D] [A] I'm my own alien in the cell.
[E] [A] They say right by, but they don't feel.
Is this for real?
Is this for [Dm] real?
[E] [A]
