Chords for Lulu & Neil Diamond - The Boat That I Row (Electric Proms, 30.10.2010)

_ Thank you so much. _
You know, when I was here for the first time in England,
way back in 1966 or 1967,
_ I was introduced to a little tiny girl
_ _ because she had a hit with one of my songs
called The Boat That I Row,
and my heart just went out to her, you know?
I knew she was a little spark plug,
like a little bit of champagne,
and she came from a very, very poor family,
I know, because they could only afford one name for her.
And even that had two of the same syllables.
I mean, they really have to save money on this kid.
So would you please welcome back,
after all these years,
Nunu, come on over here.
Oh, my goodness.
She's grown up.
Wow.
Come on.
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ They love you.
They love you too.
She is still a spark plug.
_ Now, would you do that?
Would you do The Boat That I Row?
Absolutely.
Why wouldn't I?
It's a Neil Diamond song. _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ _
[Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ [Eb] Don't have a lot, but with [Bb] me that's fine
[Eb] _ _ [Bb] _
[Eb] Whatever I got, well, I [Bb] know it's mine
[Eb] _ _
[Bb] _ [Eb] Don't go around with a [Bb] local crowd
[Eb] _ _ [Bb] I [Eb] don't think what's in, so [Bb] I guess I'm [Eb] out _ _
[Ab] Say these things so you [Bb] know, baby _ _
[Eb] You [Ab] better know before you cut [Bb] _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ off the closure
Don't get me [Bb] there soon
But I love you, got the closure
All [Eb] that I know is that I love you
And you
If [Bb] any man alive can tell me what you said
_ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] I'd choose [Eb] my own side and I'd [Bb] like it that way
[Eb] Oh, my goodness.
[Bb] I don't [Eb] worry about all the [Bb] things I'm not
[Eb] _ _ [Bb] There's [Eb] only one thing, the one [Bb] I got
[Eb] _ _ You know [Ab] that I'm thinking [Bb] about you, baby _ _
[Eb] You [Ab] better know before you [Bb] cut off
The boat [Eb] that I row, got the closure
Don't get [Bb] me there soon
[Eb] But I got the love, you got the motion
All that I know is that I love you And you
_ [Bb] Walk _ on, baby
[Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ _
[Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ [Eb] Walk _
[Bb] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] You know that [Ab] I think about you, baby
You, only [Eb] you
You better know before you
_ [Bb] _ _
[Ab] The boat that [Eb] I row, won't cross the [Ab] ocean
The boat that I row, won't get me there soon
But I got the love, you got the notion
All that I know is that I love you And you
The boat that I row, won't cross the [Eb] ocean
The boat that [Ab] I row, won't get me there [Eb] soon
But I got the love, you got the notion
All that I know is that I love [Ab] you And you
[Eb] _ _ _ _
