Shiver Me Timbers

Chords
pin

C             F  
I'm leaving my family
C             Am7
leaving all my friends
C           D7
my body's at home
       Dm9         G7
but my hearts in the wind
          C              F  
where the clouds are like headlines
     C            Am7 
on a new frontpage sky
   C             D7
my tears are salt water
     Dm9    G7  C
and the moons full and high

And I know Martin Eden's
gonna be proud of me
many before me
has been drawn by the sea
To be up in the crow's nest 
singing my say
Shiver me Timbers
as I'm sailing away


                Ebm7     
/Now the fog's lifting 
         G#7     
 and the sand's shifting
     C        D9
 I'm drifting on out

 Old captain Ahab
              G7sus4   G7
 he ain't got nothing on me

{repeat chords as above}

 So swallow me , follow me
 I'm travelling alone
 Blue waters my daughter
 I'm gonna skip like a stone


so please call my misses
tell her not to cry
'cause my googbye is written
by the moon in the sky
Nobody knows me
I can't fathom my stayin'
shiver me timbers
as I'm sailing away


Now the fogs liftin'......


I'm leaving my family
leaving all my friends
my body's at home 
but my hearts in the wind
where the clouds are like headlines
on a new frontpage sky
shiver me timbers
as I'm sailing  goodbye........
