High and Dry Chords by Gordon Lightfoot

[Start]

[Verse]
Db                         
■  With a ladylike devotion
                     Gb   
She sails the bitter ocean
                          Gb     
If it wasn't for lovesick sailors
                            Db     
There'd be nothin' left but flotsam
Ab                Gb
Singin' Why Me oh my
   Db                      Gb
Is there a better man than I 
Db                            Ab  
I hope you find your way back home
Db                           Gb 
Before you're lyin' high and dry
  Db                              
I hope you find your way back home
Ab     Db      Gb Db
Before you die ■  ■ 


[Chorus]
Gb Db                         
■  Her sails blow like bubbles
                         Gb     
While you sip your daily doubles
                             Gb     
If she wasn't so fond of the weather
                             Db     
She might give the deckhands trouble
Ab                Gb
Singin' Why Me oh my
Db                         Gb
Is there a better man than I 
  Db                          Ab  
I hope you find your way back home
Db                           Gb 
Before you're lyin' high and dry
Db                                
I hope you find your way back home
Ab     Gb      Db
Before you die ■ 
Ab Db                       
■  One day when I grew older
                        Db      
And I found I could not hold her
    Gb                          
She took on a fine young skipper
                         Db     
Who soon run her up on a boulder
Ab                Gb
Singin' Why Me oh my
           Db              Gb
Is there a better man than I 


[Bridge]
           Db                 Ab  
I hope you find your way back home
              Db             Gb 
Before you're lyin' high and dry
           Db                 Ab  
I hope you find your way back home
           Db 
Before you die
Gb Db Gb Db Ab
■  ■  ■  ■  ■ 


[Chorus]
        Db                     
Now the pleasures of the harbor
Db7                        
Don't include a lady barber
   Gb                            
If it wasn't for Long John Silver
                                Db     
All of us pirates would've been martyrs
Ab                Gb
Singin' Why Me oh my
         Db                 
Is there a better man than I
Gb         Db                 Ab  
I hope you find your way back home
              Db             Gb 
Before you're lyin' high and dry
       Db                     Ab  
I hope you find your way back home
              Db             Gb 
Before you're lyin' high and dry
           Db                 Ab  
I hope you find your way back home
           Db 
Before you die
