C               F
It's time for a change

C                 F                 G
I'm tired of that same old same the same old words

Am                 Bb                          G
the same old lines the same old tricks and the same old rhymes

C             F    C               F
Days precious days roll in and out like waves

G                          Am
I got boards to bend I got planks to nail

      Bb                    G
I got charts to make I got seas to sail
[Chorus]
          F                     G
I'm gonna build me a boat with these two hands

           C                 F
It'll be a fair curve from a noble plan

Dm                 G
let the chips fall where they will cause

Sails are just like wings

    C        F            G
The wind can make em sing songs of life

Am            Bb                 G
Songs of hope songs to keep your dreams afloat
[Chorus]
          F                    G
I'm gonna build me a boat with these two hands

C              F
Shores distant shores

C
There's where

    F
I'm headed for

G                 Am
Got the stars to guide my way

sail into the light of day

I'm gonna build me a boat with these two hands

           C                 F
It'll be a fair curve from a noble plan

Dm                 G
let the chips fall where they will cause
