Here's some rough lyrics and chords, 
maybe someone else can elaborate on it 

D           A          Bm 
I fell in love with a sailor 
D           A          Bm 
Near the docks of my home down 
D           A          Bm 
When I was young and full of anger 
D           A          Bm 
He brought me up when I was down 

Bm           Bm       Bm 
Saying how many years has it been like that 

            G          D      
And when we woooah woo woooo wooo wooo 
         A             Bm 
I've got trouble tryna lose you 
              G          D 
And when we woooah wooo wooo woah wooo 
         A          Bm 
I've got trouble tryna care 

D           A          Bm 
Left the coast in early morning 
D           A          Bm 
Watched his boat set off to sea 
D           A          Bm 
Silence is a golden mountain 
D           A          Bm 
the last words you said to me 

Bm           Bm       Bm 
Saying how many years has it been like that 

            G          D      
And when we woooah woo woooo wooo wooo 
         A             Bm 
I've got trouble tryna lose you 
              G          D 
And when we woooah wooo wooo woah wooo 
         A          Bm 
I've got trouble tryna care 


D                         A                        Bm 
Well I met this nice girl in a gorgeous town just west of home 

D                        A                        Bm 
she told me she didn't like the direction her life was about to go 

D                        A                        Bm 
So I took her on my boat and we made love under the stars 

D                             A                           Bm 
I told her something about mountains so she'd leave before night was dark 


Bm                 Bm               Bm 
said How many years has it been like this? 
Don't leave me dying out here like this. 

                   G          D    
And when we woooooooah woo woooo wooo 
                A          Bm 
I've got trouble tryna lose you 
             G                   D 
And when we wooooooooo wooo wooo wooo 
  A                    Bm 
I've got trouble tryna care 

          G                   D 
When we knowwwwwwwww when we knowww 
          A                Bm 
I've got trouble tryna lose you 
         G                    D 
When we knowwwwwwwww when we knowww 
         A              Bm
