Chords

Gm                  F
 I'm undecided about you again

Gm                      C
 Mightn't be right that you're not here

Cm                          Dm
 It's double-sided 'cause I ruined it all

         Dmaj7                                Bb   Bb7
-But also saved myself by never believing you, Dear
Everything good I deem too good to be true Everything else is just a bore Everything I have to look forward to Has a pretty painful and very imposing before Chorus:
Dm         Am              Em                  Em Ebm Dm
O' sailor why'd you do it -What'd you do that for?

Dm              Am            F                 Em
Saying there's nothing to it -And lettin' it go by the boards

Dm         Am              Em                  Em Ebm Dm
O' sailor why'd you do it -What'd you do that for?

Dm              Am                F             Em
Saying there's nothing to it -And lettin' it go by the boards
I have too been playing with fifty-two cards -Just 'cause I play so far from my vest Whatever I've got, I've got no reason to guard What could I do, but spend my best [Chorus (twice)]
G#    G#/F                      C/D
  And after waiting, fighting patiently on my knees

G#            G#/F                    Cm
 All the other stuff tired itself out first, not me

G#                G#/F                   C/D
 And in its wake, appeared the touch and call of a different breed

Eb                    Cm               D                 Dm
One who set to get me wise and got me there and then, got me
And what a thing to know what could be instead Oh, what a blessed curse; to see It took the agenda from its place in my bed Made a merry paramour of me [Chorus once]
Dm         Am              Em                   Em Ebm Dm
O' sailor why'd you do it -What'd you do that for

Dm              Am         F          Em
Giving me eyes to view it -As it goes by the boards
