CHORDS USED:
INTRO
A D E
I awake from a long, deep sleep
In a leaky little boat on a wide blue sea
F#m D EI spy no island, rock or shore
A D EAnd the sea, she’s a-comin’ to me through a hole in the floor
D A E
And the tide come in and the tide go out
And the waves they come toss my little boat about
F#m D EAnd the sky turn black and the sky turn blue
A D EI got no pail, no sail, no anchor, too
Just a leaky little boat
This is the same as the first part of the verses. It is strummed up-down-up on the A's
D's. E can be just one stroke.
This fill is played over these chords and comes up more throughout the song with variations.

VERSE: | A A D E | A A D E | F#m F#m D E | A A D E |
The verse is strummed the same way as the above part. Up-down-up on the A's, D's, and
one strum on the E's.
And as I wake I look around
I have no notion where I’m bound
So many different colored boats I see
Are all leaky, lonely and driftin’
Just like me
Chorus
And the tide come in and the tide go out
D A EAnd the waves they come toss my little boat about
F#m D EAnd the sky turn black and the sky turn blue
I got no pail, no sail, no anchor, too
-Just a leaky little boat
F#m D E
I spy no island rock or shore
F#m D EI spy no island rock or shore
I spy no island shore
And the sea keeps a-comin’ to me through a hole in the floor
-Of my leaky little boat
Bridge:
Alone, adrift, together are we
A D ESlowly sinkin’ in a deep blue sea
F#mBut we smile and we wave
And we say, “I’m afraid…and I love you…and here we go…”
And the tide come in and the tide go out
D A EAnd the waves they come toss my little boat about
F#m D EAnd the sky turn black and the sky turn blue
I got no pail, no sail, no anchor, too
-Just a leaky little boat

At the end the music stops then there is just a rhythmic tap on the dummer's high hat
a few seconds. Then the guitar comes in with something like this:
| E A D A D | Repeated several times without lyrics.
