My Baby The Sun

[Am]Build me a boat deep in your heart,
On the [C]currents of your so[G]ul, I will row, I will c[Am]hart
[Am]My journey will be, this story my own
As we wa[C]nder side by sid[G]e into the great un[Am]known

[Am]Throw me a bone, cast me a line
Light my c[C]igarette and I will o[G]pen your bottle of w[Am]ine
[Am]But I won't taste a drop, won't make a scene
I will [C]live my life on the ed[G]ge of that gorgeous rav[Am]ine

But [E]oh,[G] would it b[C]e to hold the s[D]un?
Oh,[E] it ain[G]t me, your [D]light shines down on [C]everyone  [Am]

Sing me a tune about me and you
Sing of the holy road and the phases of the Aries moon
But don't string me along, don't shelter me where I stand
Yeah, I know what it's like to be the one with the hammer in your hand

But oh, would it be to hold the sun?
Oh, it aint me, your light shines down on everyone
My baby the sun

So, build me a boat deep in your heart
Hold me there forever more, long after we part
'Cause I'm reading the birds, walking a line
You will live in me, my darlin', till the end of time

But oh, would it be to hold the sun?
Oh, it aint me, your light shines down on everyone
My baby the sun
