Capo 2, and just three chords: E, A, B7
CHORUS

I'm building a houseboat in heaven
G7 C
to sail those deep and holy seas
C F
I'm building a houseboat in heaven
G7 C
and it's welcome aboard you sweet peace
VERSE 1
The bow she is made of solid silver
and the hall she is made of solid gold
she ain't much long the line's a-floating
but she's yours, babe, to have and to hold
CHORUS
REPEAT CHORUS(no words, but w/underwater-sounding motorboat-like
blubbery-lips solo)
I rode my old guitar to heaven
but heaven didn't feel too much like home
so I'm headed out on to them lonesome oceans
in my ruby-studded houseboat to roam
CHORUS
REPEAT CHORUS(no words, but w/underwater-sounding motorboat-like
blubbery-lips solo)
