Sailor Sailor Chords

(ver. 1)
Mickey Newbury
Em                             Am
When the morning sun came up I crawled into her bed 
    C            D         Em 
The tears in her eyes were fallin? 
                               Am
I could feel no sorrow for the cruel things I had said 
      C               D               Em
In my drunken state I did not care at all 

          G                               D  
She said, sailor, sailor tell me will you ever change your ways 
    Am                                   Em
Oh, do not take me through this stormy weather 
G                                D  
I can feel your sorrow, you have seen your better days 
        Am                               C
Ah, but I could not have loved you any better 
                     D             Em  
No, I could not have loved you any better 

Am                                      Em
Amber shades of red slashed through the night 
                             D                                                Em
And light the bed where I suppose I will lie alone a while until her cryin is done 
Am                     Em 
I cannot explain why I cannot feel her pain 
D                        Am
I've grown unfeeling I suppose 
C          D           Em
I've grown unfeeling I suppose 

Oh sailor sailor tell me will you ever change your ways...
