Our Retired Explorer

• F

verse 1: 

F                            C        
Just one more drink and then I        

Bb                  F 
should be on my way home. 

I'm not entirely sure                 
what you're talking about. 

I've had a really nice time,      
but my dogs need to be fed. 

I must say that in the right light  
you look like Shackelton. 

F             C       
Comment allez-vous ce soir? 

   Bb                  F 
Je suis comme ci comme ca. 
             
Yes a penguin taught me French back  
in Antartica. 



verse 2: 

F                        C 
Oh, I could show you the way 

Bb               F  
shadows colonize snow. 

Ice breaking up on the bay  
off the Lassiter coast. 

Light falling over the pole as  
every longitude leads  

up to your frost bitten feet 
Oh you're very sweet. 


F                 C                           
Thank you for the flowers and the  

Bb           F 
book by Derrida,  
            
but I must be getting back to  
dear Antarctica. 



Bridge: 

F           
    Say do you have a ship  

Bb 
    and a dozen able men  

C 
    that maybe you could lend me?
