[Verse 1]
      C           G
I've never been a captain
              C   G
Always been a sailor
    C         G            D     
And until the sea releases me, a 
G        C       G     (C  G)
sailor I will remain

        C                  G
Well, you worry about your mama
        C       G
Worry about your baby
C       G               D       
And you dream about a love that 
        G                       C 
only comes your way when you close
              G (C G)
 your eyes at night
        C               G
They may come to you with diamonds
        C               G
They may come to you with roses
        C               G    
And then they come to you with 
   D               G       C     
promises, but darlin' I promise 
          G (C G)
only this:

[Chorus]
        C
It's a sad old world

Sad old world

Gotta to keep on trying
                G
That's all I know

All I know

If you're lucky enough to have her
     C
You hold that pearl

Hold that pearl

If you're lucky enough to have her
     A
You hold that pearl

[Verse 2]
        C               G
We all come here as strangers (Come 
here as strangers)
C               G
Beggars at the table (Beggars at the
 table)
C       G               D 
But we leave here arm in arm, 
      G               C       G 
laughing at the morning light
