Jimmy Buffett - A Sailors Christmas guitar chord

A Sailor's Christmas

By: Jimmy Buffett

A D

A sail on the horizon's got a land fall rendezvous

A

The captain steers a well know course

D

He steers her straight and true

G D

As he trims the sheets he sings a song

Em A

He learned on boats and bars

G D

A sailor spends his Christmas

A D

In a harbor 'neath the stars"

He's travel through the doldrums, typhoons and hurricanes

He's logged a million soggy miles with water on the brain

But Christmas is the season better suited for dry land

He'll tell some lies, meet some spies

And dance barefoot in the sand

Chorus

Bm

A sailor spends his Christmas in

G A

A harbor on the hook

G D G D

cali, calais no work today

E A

Let's shelve the old log book

G D

The waterfront is reveling

Em A

The season has begun

G D

A sailor spends his Christmas

A D

In a harbor having fun

There's a party down at Le Select

All music, rum and cheer

Faces in the shadows

God I haven't seen for years

The masts and shrouds are filled with lights

‘Neath the waning of the moon

There's an air of celebration in

The realm of King Neptune

Chorus

Instrumental

Jesus was a fisherman who walked upon the sea

The North Pole is the ocean's remote frozen balcony

The continents keep drifting

The children sing and play

Cause nothing really matters

After all its Christmas day

Chorus

A sailor spends his Christmas in the harbor having fun
