Keith Shiner - Handmade Sailboat Chords
Great tune by a independent guitar player/songwriter. You will need to listen to
the tune to get the strumming and the nuances of the chord changes. You can get
the song/album on iTunes.
INTRO: | Em | G | Am | C | 2 times
When transitioning from the Em to G hit the open E then F# notes on the E string
just before going to G (on the "4and" beat - last eight of the bar
On the Am you can pull off the A (G string) before moving to C.
On the C, throw in a Cadd9.
HERE'S THE TUNE...HAVE FUN.
Em G Am C
I built this sailboat by hand. Come help me push it off the sand
Em G Am C
Lets get it rolling on the sea. Roll it up and down back and forth you and me.
Em G Am C
She creaks with pleasure as we batton down. A splash of water over the rails
Em G Am C
The warm spray off the bow makes me smile. Through the green blue waters we sail

CHORUS:
D C/Cadd9 D C/Cadd9 D C/Cadd9 D C/Cadd9
With the wind at my back. Wind at my back. Wind at my back.
Em G Am C
Mother Nature carry me. Is this whats its like to be free.
Em G Am C
My boat is strong at my command, I hope I never never have to land
Em G Am C
This boat is mine and it rides the waves. All day long I sail. At night I pray
Em G Am C
The warm glow of the pink sky ushering in a new windy day.
