Shiver me Timbers  Tom Waits



[G]I'm leaving my [C/D]family
[G]leaving all my [Em7]friends
[G]my body's at [A7]home
but my h[Am]earts in the [D7]wind
where the [G]clouds are like [C/D]headlines
on a [G]new frontpage [Em7]sky
my [G]tears are salt [A7]water
and the m[Am]oons full [D7]and h[G]igh
And I know Martin Eden's
gonna be proud of me
many before me
has been called by the sea
To be up in the crow's nest
singing my say
Shiver me Timbers
I'm a-sailing away

Chorus:
-------

Now the [Em7]fog's lifting
and the [B7]sand's shifting and
I'm [G]drifting on [A9]out
O[G]ld captain Ahab
he ain't got [D7sus4]nothing on [D7]me
So come on and sw[Em7]allow me , dont f[B7]ollow me
I'm tra[G]velling al[A9]one
Blue w[G]aters my daughter
I'm ski[D7sus4]ppin' like a s[D7]tone


So please call my missus
tell her not to cry
'cause my goodbye is written
by the moon in the sky
And nobody knows me
I can't fathom my stayin'
shiver me timbers
I'm a-sailing away


Chorus


I'm leaving my family
I'm leaving my friends
my body's at home
but my hearts in the wind
where the clouds are like headlines
on a new frontpage sky
shiver me timbers
I'm a-sailing ... a...way
