I'll Sail My Ship Alone
by Patsy Cline
G
We've been sweethearts for so long
C
But now you say we're through
D7 G
The love we shared is now a memory
I had built a ship of dreams
C
And planned them all for you
D7 G
And now I guess what is to be will be
I'll sail my ship alone
D7
With all the dreams I own
G
Drifting out across the ocean blue
I'll sail my ship alone
D7
Though all the sails you've torn
G
And when it starts to sink then I'll blame you
I'm just like a ship at sea
C
That's lost without a sail
D7 G
The dark clouds hide the sun from up above
And even with these broken dreams
C
My heart will never fail
D7 G
For deep inside there's only one true love
I gave a message to the wind
C
To take back home to you
D7 G
Hopin' you would hear my S.O.S.
Maybe you would come back home
C
My darling if you knew
D7 G
How much my aching heart is in distress
I'll sail my ship alone
D7
With all the dreams I own
G
Drifting out across the ocean blue
I'll sail my ship alone
D7
Though all the sails you've torn
G
And when it starts to sink then I'll blame you
In my opinion Patsy Cline had the best pipes ever, and that covers a lot of great singers. She had quality and strength, that to me is a rarity, I'm thankful she left us with as much music as she did.
