      Album: Great Successes Of Creedence

[Intro]
   F

[Verse 1]
F
Lock the door, sun's a fallin'.
                             C
Poke the fire, don't let the cold in.
                                F
Gonna try to sail away from the rest of my life.

[Verse 2]
F
Found a boat to make the break in.
                                    C
Filled with hope 'bout the step I'm takin'.
                                F
Gonna try to sail away from the rest of my life.

[Chorus]
C                      Dm          Bb               F
Spent a long time list'ning to the captain of the sea,
C                  Dm        Bb                 C
Shoutin' orders to his crew; no one hears but me.

[Verse 3]
F
Cast away, tide's a runnin'
                              C
Hoist the sail, strong wind's comin'.
                                F
Gonna try to sail away from the rest of my life.

[Instrumental]
F C F

[Chorus]
C                      Dm          Bb               F
Spent a long time list'ning to the captain of the sea,
C                  Dm        Bb                 C
Shoutin' orders to his crew; no one hears but me.

[Verse 5]
F
Lock the door, sun's a fallin'.
                             C
Poke the fire, don't let the cold in.
                                F
Gonna try to sail away from the rest of my life.
C                               F
Gonna try to sail away from the rest of my life.
