The Boat Song

JJ Heller


Tom: Em

              G                   Em
If you were a boat, my darling, a boat, my darling
    C                   D
I'd be the wind at your back
             G                   Em
If you were afraid, my darling, afraid, my darling
    C                  D/F#
I'd be the courage you lack


G  Em  C  D  (x2)

              G                   Em
If you were a bird, then I'd be a tree
                   C                    D
And you would come home, my darling, to me
               G                    Em
If you were asleep, then I'd be a dream
             C                               D/F#
Wherever you are, that's where my heart will be


G  Em  C  D


[Chorus]

C   D         Em        G      D/F#
   Oh, do you know we belong together?
C   D         B7      Em    D/F#  C      D
   Oh, do you know my heart is yours?


[Verse]

                G                 Em
If you were the ocean, I'd be the sand
              C                D
If you were a song, I'd be the band
                G                      Em
If you were the stars, then I'd be the moon
               C                     D/F#
A light in the dark, my darling, for you

G  Em  C  D


[Chorus]

C    D         Em        G      D/F#
   Oh, do you know we belong together?
C    D         B7      Em    D/F#  C      D
   Oh, do you know my heart is yours?


[Interlude]

G  D/F#  F  Em    (x3)


[Chorus]

C   D         Em        G      D/F#
   Oh, do you know we belong together?
C   D         B7      Em    D/F#  C
   Oh, do you know my heart is yours?
    D         Em        G      D/F#
   Oh, do you know we belong together?
C   D         B7      Em    D/F#  C
   Oh, do you know my heart is yours?
