Song: A Sailors Christmas Tab
A Sailor's Christmas
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
