Boats To Build Lyrics & Chords By Jerry Jeff Walker

It's time, time for a change
'Cause I'm tired of that same old same
Same old words, same old lines
Same old tricks and the same old rhymes
Days, precious days
They roll in and out just like waves
Got boards to bend, planks to nail
Charts to make and I got seas to sail
So I'll build me a boat with these two hands
It'll be a fair curve from a noble plan
Let the chips fall where they will
'Cause I got me boats to build
Sails are just like wings
When the wind blows
How it makes 'em sing
Songs of life, songs of hope
Songs to keep all your dreams afloat
So I'll build me a boat with these two hands
It'll be a fair curve from a noble plan
Let the chips fall where they will
'Cause I got me boats to build
Shores, distant shores
That's a place I'll be headed for
The stars at night, they guide my way
As I sail into the light of day
Then I'll build me a boat with these two hands
It'll be a fair curve from a noble plan
Let the chips fall where they will
Yeah I got me boats to build
Yeah, I got me dreams to fill
Yeah, I got those boats to build
Let the winds take me where they will
