Morten Abel - Cecilia Carter


C                          F           C
One of these days I get my boat on the water
   Am          G             F  
My boat on the water one of these days
                    C   
Named after my girl Cecilia Carter
    Am                G
You know the American actress?
                F             C
And when Cecilia floats on the water
    Am        G          F
And winter is over come summertime
                 C      
Very soon now I'm going to be a father
   Am                      G
I hope it's a daughter this time

    Bb                 F
And if I get, if I get enough money
     C
Or I find a pot of gold
Bb               F                  G
I have a big family to look after me when I'm old
         Am             C                  F
But first of all, all I want is this boat see
                          Am
My Dad never could afford one you see
        C         F
He got too many mouths to feed


My Mamma always used to say to me darling
To everything there is a beginning
So first I got to get Cecilia Carter on the water floating
I stopped by the river bank
And put my toes in the sand
I might not need a family plan
Cos if I listen to my heart
I'll forever be Cecilia's man

And if I get, if I get enough money
Or I find a pot of gold
I have a big family to look after me when I'm old
But first of all, all I want is this boat see
My Dad never could afford one you see
He got too many mouths to feed

And if I get, if I get enough money
Or I find a pot of gold
I have a big family to look after me when I'm old
But first of all, all I want is this boat see
My Dad never could afford one you see
He got too many mouths to feed
