I'll Sail This Ship Alone by Paul Heaton and David Rotheray
Note: I think that A7 in the chorus is not the correct chord. If you know a better chord to play, please let me know!
If, if you choose that we will always lose
Well then I'll sail this ship alone
And if, if you decide to give him another try
Well then I'll sail this ship alone
Well they said if I wrote the perfect love song
You would take me back
Well I wrote it, but I lost it
And now will you take me back anyway
Now if, if you insist that this is for the best Well then I'll sail this ship alone And if, if you swear that you no longer care Well then I'll sail this ship alone
I'll sail this ship alone
Between the pain and the pleasure
I'll sail this ship alone
Amongst the sharks and the treasure
If you would rather go your way then go your way N/C I'll sail this ship alone
If, if you're afraid that I won't make the grade Well then I'll sail this ship alone And if, if you agree to him instead of me Well then I'll sail this ship alone
Well they said if I wrote the perfect letter That I would have a chance Well I wrote it, and you burned it And now do I have a chance anyway
If, if you swear that you no longer care Well then I'll sail this ship alone
[Chorus]
Well they said if I burnt myself alive That you'd come running back
