Six Months In A Leaky Boat - Split Enz (1982) FLAC Remaster HD Video chords
Start Jamming...
When [D] I'm on the air, I wonder if you sail around the world.
That's the life for [Bm] me.
Living on the sea, spirit on the sea.
Circularity, still flow.
You're the rest of a pioneer, but acknowledge what you're going to do.
[A] I remember you by,
[D] underground, in the sky.
Lightning [A] flash, tempest flare, round [D] the whole.
If [Bm] you dare, I just [G] spent six months in a leaky boat.
Lucky just to keep on [G] floating.
[D] [A]
Rocking and debilitating,
glistening [Bm] like a pearl,
the bottom of the world.
[D] Tyranny of the abyss,
didn't stop the cavalier.
So why [Bm] should it stop me?
I'll conquer and set free.
[A] I come out on all you last, [D] and forget.
Again, [A] there's no one home,
to explore,
[D] to help us out.
I [Bm] can't show,
[G] I just spent six months in a leaky boat.
Six months in a leaky [D] boat.

the world you came to.
[Bm]
[A] Can't break love,
can't be cruel,
[D] don't be fooled.
By her kind,
there's [A] a will,
in my cells,
[D] will protect,
and [Bm] prevail.
[G] I just spent six months in a leaky boat.
Nothing to it, leaky boat.
In [D] my cell.
