_ [Fm] What are you going to do, Bruce Lee?
Well folks, [F] _ I'm sat to tell you that the subject of the sound, the subject of the sound, which
is a beautiful ship, a square-eight [C] brigantine that would move any person's soul, any man
or woman in the world, any bit of romance, would sigh [B] with delight or something, some
bit [Bb] of emotion, to start a score on this ship.
I actually had the good fortune to sail on her [B] for a few weeks as a trainee sailor, to
try and learn a bit about sailing in [Cm] the old-fashioned way.
And the sound, I don't know, I never remember writing the sound.
[F] People said, no, you didn't write it.
[Gb] Nobody gave credit to [Fm] it.
I think the ship herself, I fell in love with the ship, you see.
And I went cold like ice, green, [Ab]
violet, and it's the ocean.
And we're between Caesarean Islands and Coventry, Scotland.
[C] And there's a beautiful young lady came up to me, she's a killer. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ This guy came up to me, a lovely lady, and she's a young, young woman, a teen.

And I just heard the [Fm] ocean crescendo, the introduction of the song, how it's going to
play in this [D] city, and I felt the sound was far more than that.
It's called Salud y Asgard, My Love is a [Eb]
Tarship.
_ _ _ [C] _ _ [D] _ _
[Gb] _ _ [F] _ [C] Well, I sailed as a rake, you know that, don't you?
You were, and you were.
Well, if you think musicians are rakes, [F] sailors are workers.
And if you put the [C] two together, what do you get?
[D] Jimmy Clowley.
