Song: The Ballard Of Laverne And Captain Flint Tab

Intro: E,F#m,E,F#m,E,F#m

  E                        F#m
Here comes Martha runnin' down the pier
  A                  D        A
looks like Captain Flint is here
  E                 F#m
You get the bow and I get the stern
  A                      D     A
Lord would you look at that Laverne
  E                              B7
Old Flint's got shrimp from the deep blue sea
      A                  E         F#m, E F#m
and buckets of fish for you and me

Chorus (with a shuffle)

 F# F#m7    F#  F#m7  F#,F#m7 F#  F#m7   F#  F#m7
Old Flint's boat is   fine    and she's called the 
 F#  F#m7 F#  F#m7
Miss-Inclined
 F#  F#m7   F#  F#m7 F#,F#m7,F  B7             E   F#m
and there's no home port     painted on her stern
 F#  F#m7 F#  F#m7  F#  F#m7 F#  F#m7 F#  F#m7  F#  F#m7  F#  F#m7
and they say she's like a   ghost     up and   down that Texas
 F#  F#m7 F#  F#m7
coast
 F#  F#m7 F#  F#m7 F  B7          E   F#m   E  F#m
but you saw him     didn't you Laverne

Daddy says Flint is a weird old bird
and what's more I have heard
that his nets are charmed by a woman who knew
how to work that Louisiana voo-doo
Laverne get away from that boat you hear
your mama don't want you hangin' round here

Chorus

Martha, Martha won't you tell me please
that it's not Laverne that I see
there on the deck of the Miss-Inclined
with Captain Flint I must be blind
Laverne girl what's the matter with you
old Captain Flint put a spell on you

Chorus
