A Sailor's Christmas Jimmy Buffett
[A]A sail on the horizon's got[D] a land fall rendezvous
The [A]captain steers a well know course
[D]He steers her straight and true
As he t[G]rims the sheets [D]he sings a song
He [Em]learned on boats and[A] bars
A s[G]ailor spends his Chr[D]istmas
In a h[A]arbor 'neath the stars[D]"
He's travel through the doldrums, typhoons and hurricanes
He's logged a million soggy miles with water on the brain
But Christmas is the season better suited for dry land
He'll tell some lies, meet some spies
And dance barefoot in the sand
Chorus
A [Bm]sailor spends his Christmas in
A har[G]bor on the hook [A]
[G]cali, c[D]alais no [G]work to[D]day
Let's [E]shelve the old log[A] book
The [G]waterfront is rev[D]eling
The[Em] season has beg[A]un
A [G]sailor spends his C[D]hristmas
In a [A]harbor havin[D]g fun
There's a party down at Le Select
All music, rum and cheer
Faces in the shadows
God I haven't seen for years
The masts and shrouds are filled with lights
'Neath the waning of the moon
There's an air of celebration in
The realm of King Neptune
Chorus
Instrumental
Jesus was a fisherman who walked upon the sea
The North Pole is the ocean's remote frozen balcony
The continents keep drifting
The children sing and play
Cause nothing really matters
After all its Christmas day
Chorus
A sailor spends his Christmas in the harbor having fun
