I dreamed last night, I was on the boat to heaven. 
          Dm                Bb 
By some chance,       I had brought my dice along. 
    Am      Bb          Am             Bb 
And there I stood and I holler someone fade 
        F/A             G/B             C(6 beats)  Eb 
But the passengers they knew right from wrong. 
        F               Bb        C7 (Bb guitar)Eb         F 
And the people said sit down, sit down you're   rockin the boat. 
        F                   Bb        C7 (Bb guitar)       Eb         F 
    The people all said sit down, sit down          you're rockin the  
boat. 
           Dm                 Bb           G                    C 
Cause the devil will drag you under by the sharp lapels of your  
checkered coat  
        F      Bb         C7 (Bb guitar)  Eb         F 
    Sit down.  Sit down.  Sit down you're rockin the boat. 
Dm     (C)    Bb            Dm     (C)    Bb   (sing the C, don't play  
it) 
Oooh   Oooh   Oooh (scat)   Oooh   Oooh   Oooh  
     Dm                 Bb 
As I sailed, with those passengers to heaven 
   Dm                     Bb 
By some chance, I found a bottle in my fist. 
    Am      Bb     Am                 Bb 
And there I stood, nicely passing out the whiskey  
        F/A             G/B      C(6 beats)  Eb 
But the passengers were bound to resist. 
        F               Bb            C7          Eb         F 
And the people all said sit down, sit down you're rockin the boat. 
    F                   Bb        C7          Eb         F 
The people all said sit down, sit down you're rockin the boat. 
          Dm                  Bb           G                    C          
Eb 
Cause the devil will drag you under by the sharp lapels of your  
checkered coat. 
    F          Bb         C7       Eb 
    Sit down.  Sit down.  Sit down you're rockin the boat. 
Dm     (C)    Bb     Dm     (C)    Bb (guitar solo on this part) 

Oooh   Oooh   Oooh   Oooh   Oooh   Oooh  
   Dm               Bb 
As we sail, on that tiny boat to heaven 
      Dm        (harmony)Bb 
Great big wave, came and washed me over board 
    Am   Bb         Am               Bb 
And as I sank, oh I hollered someone save me 
           F/A      G/B                C(6 beats)  Eb 
That's the moment I woke up, thank the lord. 
      F              Bb        C7              Eb         F 
And I said to myself sit down, sit down you're rockin the boat.  
(harmony) 
      F              Bb        C7              Eb         F 
    I said to myself sit down, sit down you're rockin the boat. 
          Dm                  Bb           G                    C          
Eb 
Cause the devil will drag you under by the sharp lapels of your  
checkered coat 
    F          Bb         C7              Eb         F 
    Sit down.  Sit down.  Sit down you're rockin the boat. 
    F                     Bb                  C7              Eb 
    Sit down  (Sit down)  Sit down (Sit down) sit down you're rockin the  
boat 
    REPEAT, JAM, FADE
