A New Shore Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Steven Page
I've wanted to do a Steve Page tab for a while, so here it is. Chorded from a live 
outdoor performance at Yonge/Dundas Square (Toronto) where I zoomed right in, so 
should be accurate (use Firefox if the chords don't line up). A great tune off his 
album, "Page One". Enjoy!
[no capo, open chords, acoustic]

F                                                               Dm
As captain of this band of merry sailors I'm a black mark I'm a failure
     G                 F
So before you watch me drown
      F
I'm relinquishing command for something I don't understand,
            Dm               G                 F
this man's about to turn his whole life upside down 

G                    F
I set a course for a new shore
G                         F
It looked the same as the one before
    Fm                     F
And I forgot what I'd been sailing for
    G                                          F
And why I thought this time would be different

F
I do most of this by feel and let go of the wheel the constellations
Dm         G               F
Do the navigation on their own.
       F
Whilst yearning for adventure, dreading censure in absentia
        Dm           G            F
I would rather be at sea than be alone

G                    F
I set a course for a new shore
G                         F
It looked the same as the one before
    Fm                     F
And I forgot what I'd been sailing for
    G                                          F
And why I thought this time would be different

(F)
Off the charts we drew
                       Dm           G           F
They said there wasn't anything but fairy tales
                                             Dm           G                Am
I told them it was you, I told them you were everything a fairy tale could be
               Dm
The boat sails by
Am               Dm              Em
Oooo-The shore remains and so do I
             G                    F
I swear this time will be different


Instrumental F - Dm - G - F (x2)


G                   F         
I settled here on a new shore
G                        F
My lips were blue and my legs were sore
    Fm                                   F
And I forget if I was pushed or I jumped overboard
    G                                           F
And after all this time, what's the difference?

     Em7     F    D7
Oooo-ooooooh Oooo-aaaahhh


Instrumental (palm muted) F - Dm - G (x2)


F
Land Ho! (Laa-and Ho!)
Dm       G
Land Ho! Land Ho! 
(x3)

F
Land Ho! Laa-and Ho!
Dm       G       F
Land Ho! Land Ho!
