[Ebm] [Gb]
[Db]
Sail on down the [Ab] line [Ebm] about [Eb] [Ebm] half a mile or so
Don't really wanna [Db] know where you're going
Maybe once or twice [Ab] you'll see
[Ebm] Time after time I tried to [Eb] [Ebm] hold on to what we got
[Db] But now you're going
[Bbm] [Ab] [Gb] And I don't [Ab] mind [Db] about the things you're [Bbm] gonna say, [Ab] Lord
[Gb] I gave all [Ab] my money and [Db] my
[Bbm] time
[Gb]
I know it's [Ab] a shame, [Db] but I'm giving you [Bbm] back your name
[Ab] [Gb]
Guess [Db] I'll be on [Ebm] my way, I [Db] won't be [Ebm] back to stay
[Gb] I guess I'll [Ebm] move along, [Ab] I'm looking for [Db] a good [Ab] time
[Db]
[Ebm] [Ebm]
[Db]
[Bbm] [A]
[Db] Sail on down the [Fm] line, ain't it [Eb] [Ebm] funny how the time can go on
Friends say they told me so, [Db] but it doesn't [Bbm] matter
[Db]
It was plain [Eb] to see that a [Ebm] small town boy [Bb] like me
Just [Eb]
[Ebm] wasn't your cup of tea
I was [Db]
wishful thinking
I [Gb]
gave you [Ab] my heart [Db] and I tried [Fm] to [Bbm] make you happy
[Abm] And
[Gb] you [Ab] gave me nothing in [Db] [Fm] [Bbm] return
[Ab] You know [Gb] it ain't so [Ab] hard to say
But [Db] would you please just [Bbm] go away
[Ab] [Gb]
[Fm] [Gb] I've [Db] thrown away [Gb] the blues, [Db] tired of [Ebm] being used
I [Gb] want [Db] everyone [Ebm] to know I'm [Db] looking for a [Ab] good time
[B] Good [Gb] time, [Ab]
[Db]
yeah
[Eb] I
[Ebm] [Db]
[Bbm] [Eb]
[Db]
[Gb] gave you [Ab] my heart [Db] and I [Ab] tried to [Bbm] make you happy

[Bb]
[Abm] You [Gb] know it ain't so [Ab] hard to say
[Db] But would you please just [Bbm] go away
[Ab]
[Gb] I've got nothing [Ebm] else to lose, [Db] tired of being [Bbm] used
[Gb]
I want [Db] everyone [Ebm] to know I'm looking [Db] for a [Ab] good time
