key: Ebm
B                F#
My name’s Sebastian
B                F#
I killed the captain
B          F#                  B               F#
Just a guy that likes to keep the ghetto blastin’
B          F#
In sixteen ninety
B           F#
I blew up Weimar
B          F#        B         F#
Dedicating everything I did to beauty
E
But Truth and Beauty
F#
Are not the same thing
G#m                    B
The Grecian Urn filled up with camel dung
E
I got a sharp tongue
F#              G#m   B
Better warn the Pope

[Chorus]
B                        E
All I wanted to be was a boat on the sea
              F#               B
With the wind ever blowing my sail
B                         E
All I wanted to be was a boat on the sea
               F#               B
With the wind ever blowing my sail
 F#         B
Blowing my sail
 F#          B
Blowing my sail

[Verse 2]
B            F#
I’m like a Buddhist
B         F#
Tryna do this
B            F#             B                F#
And you can hook me up with God because you’re Jewish
B             F#
The Pharisees are
B             F#
Tryna thwart me
B        F#       B          F#
I need a Mary Magdalene to escort me
E
Such a bummer
F#
The Last Supper
G#m                 B
Is right around the corner from this place
E
Get your pants on
F#            G#m   B
Botox your face

[Chorus]
B                        E
All I wanted to be was a boat on the sea
              F#               B
With the wind ever blowing my sail
B                         E
All I wanted to be was a boat on the sea
               F#               B
With the wind ever blowing my sail
 F#         B
Blowing my sail
 F#          B
Blowing my sail

[Bridge]
G#m            F#
I'll never know
 B             E
If I'm worth a damn
   F#      G#m
Or just a ham
 A                     F#
But when I trust a feeling
B              G#
Music comes to me
           C#
And I feel free
              A#               D#m     F#
And that is all I needed to know

[Solo]
B  E  F# B
B  E  F# B

[Chorus]
B                        E
All I wanted to be was a boat on the sea
              F#               B
With the wind ever blowing my sail
B                         E
All I wanted to be was a boat on the sea
               F#               B
With the wind ever blowing my sail
B                        E
All I wanted to be was a boat on the sea
              F#               B
With the wind ever blowing my sail
 F#         B
Blowing my sail
 F#          B
Blowing my sail
