  Intro:

  [G]  [A]  [C]  [G]    [G]  [A]  [C]  [G]

  [G]  [A]  [C]  [G]    [G]  [A]  [C]  [G]

  

  Now [G]what would they [A]do if I [C]just sailed a[G]way

  [G]Who the hell [A]really compelled me [C]to leave to[G]day

  [G]Runnin' low on[A] stories of what[C] made it a [G]ball

  [G]What would they [A]do if I [C]made no land[G]fall

  

  I lived half my life in an eight by five room

  Just crusin' to the sound of the big diesel boom

  It's not close quarters that would make me snap

  It's just dealing with the daily unadulterated crap

  

  Chorus: (see below for notes on "Run")

       ["Run"]Sail away,[E]  for a [A]month at a [G]time

       ["Run"]Sail away,[E]  I've got to [A]restart my [G]mind

       And you'll [A]find me back at it [Gb]a - [G]gain

  

  Now I love the smell of fresh snapper fried light

  What you say pouilly-fusse to round out the night

  The mid-morning watch is the best time to look

  Oh, what would they do if I wrote the big book

  

  'Cause I've seen incredible things in my years

  Some days were laughter and others were tears

  If I had it all to do over again

  I'd just get myself drunk and I'd jump right back in

  

  Chorus:

       Sail away, that's the way I survive

       Sail away, that's just no shuck and jive

       But it makes my whole life come alive

  

  Solo: (based on verse and chorus chords) 

  

  The wind whistles through the cold riggin' at night

  Crazy crowds boogie to the sound and the lights

  Bums down in Capo's, he's just havin' a ball

  Oh, what would he do on another landfall

  What would they do if I made no landfall

  Oh, what would they do if I flew to Nepal

  What would I do if I met Lucile Ball

  I'm tryin' to make a little sense of it all

  Just tryin' to make a little sense of it all

  

  (Repeat Intro chords twice and fade)
