Sail On

by Commodores
Commodores

Biography:

The Commodores are an American funk/soul band, which was at its peak in the late 1970s through the mid 1980s. The members of the group met as mostly freshmen at Tuskegee Institute (now Tuskegee University) in 1968, and signed with Motown in November 1972, having first caught the public eye opening for The Jackson 5 while on tour.

The group's most successful period was in the late 1970s and early 1980s when Lionel Richie was co-lead singer. The band's biggest hit singles are ballads such as "Easy"

Intro:

C, Dm, C

Verse 1:

C
Sail on down the line
Dm
About a half a mile or so
Don't really wanna know
C
Where you're going

C
Maybe once or twice you see
Dm
Time after time I tried
To hold on to what we got
C
But now you're going

Chorus 1:

F G
And I don't mind
C C/B Am C7
About the things you're gonna sail on
F G C C/B Am, C7
I give all my money and my time
F G
I know it's a shame
C C/B Am
But I'm giving you back your name
G F
Yeah yeah

Bridge 1:

F C Dm
Yes I'll be on my way
F C Dm
I won't be back to stay
F C Dm
I guess I'll move a-long
C G
I'm looking for a good time

Interlude:

C, Dm, C

Verse 2:

C
Sail on down the line it's
Dm
Funny how the time can go
Friends says they told me so
C
But it doesn't matter

C
It was plain to see
Dm
That a small town boy like me
Just wasn't your cup of tea
C
I was wishful thinking

Chorus 2:

F G
I gave you my heart
C C/B Am C7
And I tried to make you happy
F G C C/B Am
And you gave me nothing in re-turn
C7 F G
You know it ain't so hard to say
C C/B Am
Would you please just go a-way
G F
Yeah yeah

Bridge 2:

F C Dm
I've thrown away the blues
F C Dm
I'm tired of being used
F C Dm
I want every-one to know
C G
I'm looking for a good time
Bb F G
Good time

Coda:

Fmaj7 Em7
Sail on honey
Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7
Good times never felt so good

Fmaj7 Em7
Sail on honey
Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7
Good times never felt so good

(Repeat to Fade)
