 When transitioning from the Em to G hit the open E then Fnotes 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.
I  built this sailboat by hand.  Come help me push  it off the sand
 Lets get it  rolling on the sea.  Roll it up  and down back and forth  you and me.
She  creaks with pleasure as we batton down.  A splash  of water over the rails
 The warm  spray off the bow makes me smile.  Through the green  blue waters we sail
With  the wind at my back. Wind  at my back. Wind  at my back.
Mother  Nature carry me.  Is this  whats its like to be free.
 My boat  is strong at my command,  I hope I never  never have  to land
 This boat  is mine and it rides the waves.  All day long  I sail. At night  I pray
 The warm  glow of the pink sky  ushering in  a new windy day.
Built  this boat for me. Not  just to get from A  to B.
But  to live out on the open seas.  There is no  place Id rather be.
 Intro 2 times
I  built this sailboat by hand.  Come help me push  it off the sand
 Lets get it rolling  on the sea. Roll  it up  and down back and forth  you and me.
