Plain Sailing Weather Uke tab by Frank Turner (Baritone Chords)

Intro/Chorus

             Am              F
Just give me one fine day of plain sailing weather
    C                       
And I can fuck up anything, anything.
         Am                  F
It was a wonderful life when we were together,
    C                                       G
And now I've fucked up every little goddamn thing.


Verse 1

       Am          F                         C     G
Amelie lied to me,   this was supposed to be easy.
            Am                 F                          C      G
I found the one damn person to help me fall asleep in the night.
                  Am      F                        C      G
But sleeping gets tiring,   and dark reminds me of dying,
       Am                  F
And as long as this feeble heart is still beating,
         C                                                        G
You will find me rushing through every room, switching on all the lights.


Pre-Chorus

    E                     Am
The problem with falling in love in latenight bars
                 F
Is that there's always more nights, there's always more bars.
    E                        Am
The problem with showing your lover your scars
        F
Is that everybody's lover is covered in scars.


Chorus

             Am              F
Just give me one fine day of plain sailing weather
    C                       
And I can fuck up anything, anything.
         Am                  F
It was a wonderful life when we were together,
    C
And now I've fucked up every


Verse 2
           Am        F            C          G
Things got fractious,  and I felt faithless,
        Am                     F                          C      G
At that moment just before the dawn when everything falls apart.
                  Am      F                   C          G
But baby I didn't mean it,  for things to get desperate.
     Am                  F
I let slip my guard, let go of the rudder,
          C                          G
Now we're drifting in the current away from one another.


Chorus

             Am              F
Just give me one fine day of plain sailing weather
    C                       
And I can fuck up anything, anything.
         Am                  F
It was a wonderful life when we were together,
    C                  
And now I've fucked up every thing.
        Am              F
Give me one fine day of plain sailing weather
    C                       
And I can fuck up anything, anything.
         Am                  F
It was a wonderful life when we were together,
    C                                       G
And now I've fucked up every little goddamn thing.


Bridge
                     F
every little goddamn thing
                     G
every little goddamn thing
                     F       Am (let ring)
every little goddamn thing 
                             C
I've been skirting round the rim of doing something
F                   Em                       Am
Brave, and not just standing, but jumping in,
                       C
Of making circles into squares, of laying down
    F                 Em                   Am
The bare facts like a burden I can't bear.
                          C
And I can almost find the words, but I can see the way you'd
F                      Em            F               Em
Fold your hands, speak my name like a curse upon your pretty lips,
    F                 Em
the pressured white behind your fingertips.

Outro
             Am                    G
And when you see me for all that I am
                    Fm                            C
I couldn't make mistakes to make a difference any more.
                 Am                        G
I'd throw myself down on my knees, at your hands,
                   Fm                             C
And beg you for forgiveness for my fuckups and my faults.
                Am                              G
And maybe you'd relent, release my hope for our forever,
                      Fm                                   C         Am
Lift up your precious hands, and then bring yours and mine together,
                G               Fm                     C Am
So just give me one fine day of plain sailing weather.
             G               Fm
Just give me one fine day of plain sailing weather.
