[Verse]
Em
Well, I'm starin' 'cross the deck Up at the captain's daughter
B7
And her eyes, they look brighter Than the sun on that water
Am B7 Am G F#m
Boys that's right, Boys that's right I think we're setting sail tonight
[Interlude]
Em B7 Am B7 Am G F#
[Verse]
Em
She lets me look, but just from a distance
B7
And she won't speak to me
But when I sing she still listens
Am B7
Late at night Late at night
Am G F#m
Without a speck of land in sight
[Interlude]
Em B7 Am B7 Am G F#
[Verse]
Em
Oh, her dress was bright green and embroidered
B7
Honey, I know because I've been staring at her
Since the day that we boarded:
Am B7
Staring at her thigh Staring at her thigh
Am G F#m
Now I'm looking it, in a brand new light
[Solo]
Em B7 Am B7 (X2)
Em B7 Am G
[Verse]
Em
See, that was first in the heat of passion
B7
But it's been fifteen days since we exhausted all the rations
Am B7
Boys that's right Boys that's right
Am G F#m Em
Now I'm looking at her with an appetite
B7 Am
I'm going to make her mine
B7 Am G F#m Em
Make her mine
