	        Intro:  (G)  (A)  (C)  (G)  x 4 
 
Now (G) what would they (A) do if I (C) just sailed a(G)way 
Who the hell rea(A)lly compelled me (C) to leave to(G)day 
Runnin' low on st(A)ories of what (C) made it a (G) ball 
What would they (A) do if I (C) made no land(G)fall 
I (G) lived half my (A) life in an (C) eight by five (G) room 
Just crusin' to the (A) sound of the (C) big diesel (G) boom 
It's not close qua(A)rters that would (C) make me (G) snap 
It's just dealing with the (A) daily unadu(C)lterated (G) crap 
 
     Sail a(Em)way, for a (A) month at a (G) time 
     Sail a(Em)way, I've got to (A) restart my (G) mind 
     And you'll (A) find me back at it a(G)gain 
 
(same as previous verses) 
Now I love the smell of fresh snapper fried light 
What you say pouilly-fusse to round out the night 
The mid-morning watch is the best time to look 
Oh, what would they do if I wrote the big book 
'Cause I've seen incredible things in my years 
Some days were laughter and others were tears 
If I had it all to do over again 
I'd just get myself drunk and I'd jump right back in 
 
     Sail a(Em)way, that's the (A) way I sur(G)vive 
     Sail a(Em)way, that's just no (A) shuck and (G) jive 
     But it (A) makes my whole life come a(G)live 
 
The (G) wind whistles (A) through the cold (C) riggin' at (G) night 
Crazy crowds (A) boogie to the (C) sound and the (G) lights 
Bum down in (A) Capo's, he's just (C) havin' a (G) ball 
Oh, what would he (A) do on an(C)other land(G)fall 
What would they (A) do if I (C) made no land(G)fall 
Oh, what would they (A) do if I (C) flew to Ne(G)pal 
What would I (A) do if I (C) met Lucile (G) Ball 
I'm tryin' to (A) make a little (C) sense of it (G) all 
Just tryin' to (A) make a little (C) sense of it (G) all
