Verse 1
G
Out of work I took a job
F
As a hand on a boat
C
G
in a town called
On my first day off,
F
I was sittin' drinkin' beer
C
G
at a bar called the Dockaday
F
Went in and walked a woman
G
that every man eyed,
F
C
G
but her eyes stayed right on me
F
The guy next to me,
G
he whispered real low,
C
D
there's more to her than you can see
G
She comes from the back bay,
F
C
better stay away
G
F
She lives up on the back bay,
C

and then he moved on away
Well, she came and sat down,
F
and the hours flew by
C
G
And the beer flowed just like the tide
The sun went down and
F
the moon came up
C
G
And there was fire in her eyes
F
She took me for a ride
G
in the white moonlight
F

In a boat like I'd never seen

Well, I woke in the morning

to her houseboat
C
Rockin' eye to eye with

an old brown hound
There was fresh mullet fryin'

And no one else for miles around

I saw her standin' there with a breeze in

I knew I never wanted to leave

I saw my things all around

I knew she'd been back into town

And already made the move for me

the back bed

And you're always gonna stay
