Sailor Song Lyrics

Regina Spektor - Sailor Song
A little weird on the guitar. The strumming pattern is key.
Play along and you'll get it. I kinda hinted to the counting
in the first verse, but just listen close!
You could also pluck the bass note and then the 1st and 2nd
strings for each chord (what Regina does on the piano, moreorless)
but master the rhythm first...
The chord changes should match almost perfectly with the lyrics...
G(arpeggio) C (1 count) F (2 counts)
she .........will kiss til your lip bleeds
G (1/2 count) C(1/2 count)
but she will not take her dress off
americana, tropicana
G(arpeggio) C F
all..........the sailor boys have demons
they sing "oh kentucky why did you forsake me
if i was meant to sail the sea why did you make me
it should've been another state
oh sta-a-ate..
cause mary anne's a bitch
mary anne's a bitch
C ---------- C/B# - Fm - F ------> G/G/G/G !!!
mary anne's a biiiiiiiiiiiiiitch
G (arpeggio) C F
does.........it matter that our anchors
couldnt even reach the bottom of a bath tub
and the sails reflect the moon,
its such a strange job
playing black jack on the deck
still... atop this giant puddle dressed in
white we'd quitely huddle with our missiles
and we miss the girls back home
oh home sweet home
cause mary anne's a bitch
mary anne's a bitch
mary anne's a biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitch.........
she will kiss until your lip bleeds
but she will not take her dress off
americana, tropicana.....
