It's acrimony down in the card-room, with winning hands thrown on the baize
For-gotten cards wait on the end of debate on the good old days
17 * 4 2??
Captains and mates gettin' tes-ty, with memories not of the best
1 4 1And tempers are flyin', down at the Sailor's Rest
1 5 1 4
Blue eyes in wrinkled Mo-rocco, still search the horizon for squalls
And Zeroes in the sky, and the watchkeeper's eye, and the pawnshop balls
17 * 4 2??
The spice in the wind off of Java, and the bars in Papeete were best
1 4 1But the deck is too steady, down at the Sailor's Rest
CHORUS ONE:
And, oh____ how they talked of the day they'd ar-rived
6m 4 2m 5When after the years, all the storms and the tears, still very much a-live
5 17 4And, oh____ how their lives were spilled out on the floor
From the battered old seabags, the journals and logs /
6m 27And the keepsakes locked in the chests
1 4 1That were stowed in the attic, down at the Sailor's Rest
1 5 1 4
No rail on the messroom table, and you're dead if you spit on the floor
No grog allowed, no singin' too loud, and no locks on the doors
17 * 4 2??
But there's always a fire in the card room, and the tucker is always the best
1 4 1And they'll end it together, down at the Sailor's Rest
