This Song has only been performed live so far, and isnt on an album (yet).
The title is just a joke that has stuck.
Have a look at the Chords Patterns below and listen to it on youtube and
you should be able to figure it out... Enjoy!

Intro: G Gsus2
G G/C C
If I had been born 200 years ago
G A D
I would have been a sailor, a-Sailing I would go
G G/F# G G/F# C
I'd sail around the capes across the seven seas and then back home
G D G
If I had been born 200 years ago
G G/C C
and I would know the waters and the waters would know me
G A D
I would cut across the waves and be as happy as can be
G G/F# G G/F# C
Id be landless Id be loveless Id be flight and fancy free
G D G
and would know the waters and the waters would know me
G G/C C
And when I think about the place and time were I was born
G A D
well I wonder if the hands of fate have slipped and placed me wrong
G G/F# G G/F# C
cos there are ships I could have sailed and sailors boots I could've worn
G D G
when I think about the place and time were I was born
G G/C C
But the ocean is still out there magnificent and wide
G A D
With open arms to hold me, and endless space to hide,
G G/F# G G/F# C
And the only things that hold me back are things I hold inside
G D G
The ocean is still out there magnificent and wide
C C/G D
Oh, oh, oh
G G/C C
Oh, oh, oh
C C/G D
Oh, oh, oh
D G
A-Sailing I should go
