[Intro]
Am7   Am6   Dm7   Amx2
[Verse 1]
Am7Drank away the rest of the day
Am6Wonder what my liver'd say
Dm7Drink, that's all you Amcan
Am7Blackened days with their bigger gales
blow Am6in your parlor to discuss the day
Dm7Listen, that's all you Amcan
[Chorus]
Oh, but Cdon't, no, don't sink the Gboat
that you Dmbuilt, you built to keep aAmfloat
Oh no, Cdon't, no, don't sink the Gboat
that you bDmuilt...
[Verse 2]
Am7Sick and tired of what to say
Am6No one listens anyway
Dm7Sing, that's all you Amcan
Am7Rambling years of lousy luck
Am6Miss the smell of burning turf
Dm7Dream, that's all you Amcan
[Chorus]
Oh, but Cdon't, no, don't sink the Gboat
that you Dmbuilt, you built to keep aAmfloat
Oh no, Cdon't, no, don't sink the Gboat
that you bDmuilt...
that you built to keep afAmloat
[Interlude] (x2)

[Verse 3]
Am7Singled out for who you are
Am6Takes all types to judge a man
Dm7Feel, that's all you Amcan

Am6hide behind their own worst fears

[Verse 4]
No Am7matter where I put my head
I Am6wake up feeling sound again
Dm7Breathe, that's all you Amcan
ToAm7morrow smells of less decay
The Am6flowers greet this blooming fray
Dm7Be thankful, that's all you Amcan

Oh, but Cdon't, don't sink the Gboat
