Intro




A                          Bm/A
I've seen the rain pouring down
E                       A
The sky was grey with a speck of blue
A                          Bm/A
Peek through a hole in the clouds
E
The sun was screaming, "Hey You!".

As you ramble through your sorrow

Seems like everything come out wrong

I'm living in yesterday's tomorrows

I know something's helping me along

Chorus Riff

            A          D              E
I'll take a melody and see what I can do about it.
            A            D                E
I'll take a simple C and G and feel brand new about it.
F#m    C#m           F#m       C#m
I understand why the old fisherman
      D                       C#m  F#m   C#m
Sail alone, sail alone, sail alone.
      F#m
Sail alone
D                E
Someday he'll be gone

I hear you talking about your troubles
Everybody's got their troubles too
You can make them burst like bubbles
If you know just what to do

You know I've been called a dreamer
Dreams that never come true
But I've been called so many things before
Tell you what I'm gonna do

I'll take a melody and see what I can do about it.
I'll take a simple C and G and feel brand now about it.

I understand why the old fisherman
Sail alone, sail alone, sail alone.
Sail alone
Someday he'll be gone

I'll take a melody and see what I can do about it.
I'll take a simple C and G and feel brand now about it.
