...SAIL AWAY... by Randy Newman
---------------................

*from 'Sail Away' (1972)*
*CAPO 3rd FRET*
(Original Key: F)
Verse 1:
D Bm7 E7sus
In A-merica you'll get food to eat.
A7
Won't have to run through the jungle,
D
And scuff up your feet.
D Bm7
You'll just sing about Jesus,
E7sus
And drink wine all day;
A7 D
It's great to be an American.
D Bm7
Ain't no lions or tigers,
E7sus
Ain't no mamba snake,
A7
Just the sweet watermelon,
D
And the buckwheat cake.
Bm7
Everybody is as happy,
E7sus
As a man can be,
A7
Climb aboard little wog;
D
Sail a-way with me.
Chorus 1:
D Dsus
Sail a-way,
G Gsus4
Sail a-way,
D Bm7
We will cross the mighty ocean,
E7 G/A
Into Charleston Bay.
D Dsus
Sail a-way,
G Gsus4
Sail a-way,
D Bm7 E7
We will cross the mighty ocean,
G/A D Bm7 E7sus
Into Charleston Bay.
Verse 2:
D Bm7 E7sus
In A-merica every man is free,
A7
To take care of his home,
D
And his family.
D Bm7
You'll be as happy,
E7sus
As a monkey in a monkey tree;
A7 D
You're all gonna be an American.
D
Be an American.
Chorus 2:
D Dsus
Sail a-way,
G Gsus4
Sail a-way,
D Bm7
We will cross the mighty ocean,
E7 G/A
Into Charleston Bay.
D Dsus
Sail a-way,
G Gsus4
Sail a-way,
D Bm7 E7
We will cross the mighty ocean,
G/A D Bm7 E7sus
Into Charleston Bay.
