 I am an old  old sailor
 With a future  much shorter  than his past
 I live alone,  I do not  wander
 A world  that just slips  further from my grasp
 And from my home I watch the people
 Struggle through the burden of each day
 That's where Marie sweet and gentle
 Smiles to me when she passes on her way
 And she does  it so well
 She pulls  me out of times cruel  spell
 For long  enough to finally  tell
That  nothing is wrong
 I am a boy, I am a child
 With those simple dreams still burning in my heart
 I've known Marie for a while
 She shows me where all my beginnings are
 And once a week she takes me dancing
 She shows me friends and places I never knew
 And it always ends watching her leaving
 With a man she knows don't understand what loneliness will make you do
 And she does it so well
 She shows me where my dreams dwell
 She shows me how to find myself
 And that nothing is wrong
 I am a lonely singer
 With a song for every feeling I cannot name
 And I find Marie in every measure
 And somehow the clearer it becomes the longer she's away
 And she does it so well
 I was still falling in love when she said farewell
 For long enough to finally tell
 That nothing is wrong...that nothing is wrong
 to  for a bit before ending with INTRO lick.
 Enjoy!

I am an o[Em]ld old s[Asus4]ailor  [A]
With a [C]future much [G]shorter than his [C]past
I live a[Em]lone, I do not[Asus4] wander[A]
A world[C] that just s[G]lips further from my g[C]rasp

And from my home I watch the people
Struggle through the burden of each day
That's where Marie sweet and gentle
Smiles to me when she passes on her way

And she [G]does it [B7]so [F#]well  [Em]
She [C]pulls me out of [G]times [B7]cru[F#]el sp[Em]ell
For [C]long enough to [G]finall[B7]y t[F#]ell [Em]
[C]That nothing is wrong  [G]      [C]          [G]

I am a boy, I am a child
With those simple dreams still burning in my heart
I've known Marie for a while
She shows me where all my beginnings are

And once a week she takes me dancing
She shows me friends and places I never knew
And it always ends watching her leaving
With a man she knows don't understand what loneliness will make you do

And she does it so well
She shows me where my dreams dwell
She shows me how to find myself
And that nothing is wrong

I am a lonely singer
With a song for every feeling I cannot name
And I find Marie in every measure
And somehow the clearer it becomes the longer she's away

And she does it so well
I was still falling in love when she said farewell
For long enough to finally tell
That nothing is wrong...that nothing is wrong

[G] to [C] for a bit before ending with INTRO lick.

Enjoy!
