[Chorus]
D G
Follow in my wake, you've not that much at stake
D A
For I have plowed the seas and smoothed the troubled waters
D G
Come along, let's have some fun, the hard work has been done
D A G D
We'll barrel roll into the sun, just for starters
[Verse 1]
Bm D
Just for starters, barometer's my soup
Bm D
I'm descended from a deckhand on a sloop
F#m Bm F#m Bm
I travel on the songlines that only dreamers see
G A
Not known for predictibility
[Chorus]
D G
Come and follow in our wake, you've not that much at stake
D A
For we have plowed the seas and smoothed the troubled waters
D G
Come along, let's have some fun, it seems our work is done
D A G D
We'll barrel roll into the sun, just for starters
[Verse 2]
Bm D
Sail the main course, in a simple sturdy craft
Bm D
Keep it well stocked with short stories and long laughs
F#m Bm F#m Bm
Go fast enough to get there, but slow enough to see
G A
Moderation seems to be the key
