Verse: 

E/A                              A/D 
My old man, he’s been around the world 
       Gmaj7    E/A 
And he tells me everything 
E/A                                A/D 
He taught me how to tie a sailor’s knot 
Gmaj7            G/A 
And maybe how to sing 
                 D                   C#m7  
And though I’m a man and I’ve got it together 
   F#m7           F#m7/E         D 
He still knows    what to        do 
       A                    E 
He say come on and sail the waterway 
     D      G       A 
It feels so good on you 
            A        E 
Come on and sail the waterway 
   D        G    F#m7 
It feels so good on you

And the westward wind won't quit ya

Well you know what you    got to      do
