Sail On - The Commodores

This song is mostly for piano and I'm not near my piano right now so I just

figured this out for guitar.

For the intro/verse chords you just create the Dbsus4 and Ebm(add11) variations

by moving your pinky over so that Dbsus4 looks like this: x46674 and Ebm(add11)

looks like: x68696

I'm not sure if that's exactly the right chords but it sounds pretty close.

Intro

[Db] [Dbsus4] [Db] [Ebm] [Ebm(add11)] [Ebm]

[Db] [Dbsus4] [Db]

Sail on down the line

[Ebm] ([Ebm(add11)] [Ebm])

About half a mile or so

[Ebm] [Db]

Don't really wanna know where you're going

[Db]

Maybe once or twice

[Ebm]

Time after time I tried

[Ebm]

To hold on to what we got

[Db]

But now you're going

[Db] [Ab]

\\\\

[Gb] [Ab] [Db] [Bbm] [Ab]

And I don't mind about the things you're gonna sail on

[Gb] [Ab] [Db] [Bbm] [Ab]

I give all my money and my time

[Gb] [Ab]

I know it's a shame

[Db] [Bbm] [Ab] [Gb]

But I'm giving you back your name yeh yeh

[Gb] [Db] [Ebm]

Yes, I'll be on my way

[Gb] [Db] [Ebm]

I won't be back to stay

Gb Db Ebm *on this part I think sometimes they play an Ebm7-9 (x68879)

I guess I'll move along

[Db] [Ab]

I'm looking for a good time

Sail on down the line

Funny how the time can go

Friends says they told me so but it doesn't matter

It was plain to see

That a small town boy like me

Just wasn't your cup of tea

I was wishful thinking

I gave you my heart and I tried to make you happy

And you gave me nothing in return

You know it ain't so hard to say

Would you please just go away yeah yeah

I've thrown away the blues

I'm tired of being used

I want everyone to know

I'm looking for a good time

[Db] [Ab] [Abm] [Gb] [Ab]

Good time Good time

[End part]

[Gbmaj7] [Fm]

Sail on honey

[Gbmaj7] [Fm] [Ebm7]

Good times never felt so good
