Lyrics
Sail on down the line 'bout (Em)a half ny a mile time or so,

to hold on to what we got,
but (D)a now you're goin';
(Gmaj7)and I don't my (A7)mind about the (D)things you're gonna (Bm7)say,
Lord, (Gmaj7)I gave all my (A7)money,
and my time.
You know, it ain't so I know it's a shame,
but I'm (D)givin' you back your (Bm7)name,
