D        G                D  
Slowboat takes me to your home everyday 
      G 						      D 
And I wait for you knowing that you won't come home, just today 
           A				     D	 
For you've found someone new and you'll bid me adieu 
      G 						       D 
And I leave you now, but I'll come back another day 

G     A            D  
Oooh, sail me far away 
G         A  	              D 
Slowboat, bring me back another day 
G     A            D 
Oooh, sail me far away 

Slowboat sail off toward the seventh sea 
Far away from you, but somehow coming close again and again 
And again as we near from some sign it appears 
That you won't come home, you won't come home just today 

Chorus  

Slowboat takes me where I'll always be 
Far away from you, but knowing that you 
won't come near me but you hear me 
And you'll always be a true love to me 
Though you're never home, I'll come back another day 

Chorus
