[Ebm]
[Bb]
[Eb]
[Eb]
[Gm] This is one of about four songs [F] I've written that [Eb] were inspired, if that's the word, by
a kelp bed in the North Atlantic called the Sargasso Sea.
I think it's the North Atlantic.
It could be [Gm] Lake Michigan for all I know.
It's near Bermuda.
[G] The
[Gm] [Cm] [Eb]
[D] problem with the kelp bed is that the seaweed is so ropey and thick that when wind
was how you got around on the high seas, you could get blown in there and never get blown
back out again because [Eb] of [F]
[Bb] [Eb]
the way it was, I guess.
One guy that got out of there that we know about is brilliant, huh, was Columbus.
And that's either fortunate or unfortunate.
I don't know.
The rest of the people who got stuck there we know nothing about.
[E] How many thousands petered away out there, we have no idea.
[F] And this [Eb] is a
[Ab] story and song of the [Gb] last couple [Eb] survivors withering away out on the poop deck,
assuming, I think, that the other guy would expire and they would survive and live to
tell about it [F]
until [Eb] finally there was nothing for any of them to do but die.
[C]
Which was sort of creative considering the [Eb] circumstances.
[F]
[Eb] So keep that picture in your mind if you want to.
[E] It'll help you [Eb] enjoy this song.
[F] [Abm] There you go.
