As recorded by Jerry Lee Lewis (1958 single release) [Intro] C F [Verse 1]
F
We've been sweethearts for so long

                      Bb
But now you say we're through

    C
The love we shared

              F
Is just a memory

F
I have built a ship of dreams

                     Bb
And planned them all for you,

           C7
And now, I guess,

                   F
What is to be will be.
[Chorus]
F
I'll sail my ship alone

     C
With all the dreams I own,

                              F
Drifting out across the ocean blue.

F
I'll sail my ship alone,

     C
With all the dreams I own,

C
And when it starts to sink

                F
Then I'll blame you.
[Piano Solo] F C F C F [Verse 2]
F
Well I gave a message to the wind

                  Bb
To take back home to you,

C                            F
Hoping you would hear my S.O.S.

F
Maybe you would come back home my darling,

       Bb       C
If you knew how much my aching heart

         F
Is in distress.
[Out-Chorus]
F
Well, I'll sail my ship alone

     C
With all the dreams I own,

                              F
Drifting out across the ocean blue.

F
I'll sail my ship alone,

     C
With all the dreams I own,

C
And when it starts to sink

                F
Then I'll blame you.
