The Sailor Of My Dreams chords

[INTRO]
[F]Dear Mr. [Dm7]Roosevelt [Gm7]please let me [C7]say
[F]I think your [F#dim]navy’s just [Gm7]great [C7]
[F]Tell Mrs. [F9]Roosevelt [Bb]this is my [Bbm6]day
For I [F]just said [Gm7]yes to a [Am7]boys re[Dm7]quest
To be[Gm7]come his [C7]first class [F]mate. [Dm7] [Gm7] [C7]

[VERSE]
Be[F]fore I went to s[Dm7]leep each night I [Gm7]used to [C9]pray
The [Gm7]only boy for [C]me would someday [Am7b5]come my [D7]way
now [Gm7]that he’s here I’ll [Bbm6]love and honor [Am7]and o[D7b9]bey
The [Gm7]sailor of my [C7]dreams

[VERSE]
When [F]he said "Gee you’re [Dm7]swell” and took me [Gm7]by the [C9]hand
I [Gm7]felt like I was [C]Alice lost in [Am7b5]Wonderl[D7]and
Ah-[Gm7]ha! Sweet myste[Bbm6]ry of life, I [Am7]unders[D7b9]tand
The [Gm7]sailor [Am7]of my [F]dreams.

[BRIDGE]
In [Dm7]school I thought l[G7]ove not [Dm7]worth speaking [G7]of
It was [Bb7]just for [Cm7]babes in the [Bb7]wood
But [Dm7]one little [G7]kiss now [Dm7]makes me in[G7]sist:
It’s [C]good, it’s [Adim]good, it’s [Gm7]good [C7]

[VERSE]
As [F]he just took the [Dm7]navy oath to [Gm7]be all [C9]mine
I’ll [Gm7]darn his socks and [C9]wash his shirts [Am7b5]until they [D]shine
Oh [Gm7]Mr. Roose[Bbm6]velt your fleet is [Am7]so div[D7b9]ine
I [Gm7]could go [C9]on for [Am7]reams [D]
Ab[Gm7]out my [C9]dream man, my [Am7]gentle [D]he-man,
The [Gm7]man for [C]me man, my [Am7]first class [D7]seaman
The [Gm7]sailor [C7]of [F]my dreams. [Dm] [Gm7] [Am7] [F/C]
