[Chorus]
D
I sailed a wild, wild sea
Em
Climbed up a tall, tall mountain
D
I met a old, old man
A
Beneath a weeping willow tree
D
He said now if you got some questions
Em
Go and lay them at my feet
D
But my time here is brief
A
So you'll have to pick just three
[Chorus]
And I said
D Gmaj7
What do you do with the pieces of a broken heart?
Gmaj7 D
And how can a man like me remain in the light?
D D7
And if life is really as short as they say
G Gm
Then why is the night so long
A
And then the sun went down
A (let ring) D
And he sang for me this song
[Bridge]
D Em
See I once was a young fool like you
D
Afraid to do the things
A
That I knew I had to do
A
So I played an escapade just like you
Em A
I played an escapade just like you
[Chorus]
D
I sailed a wild, wild sea
Em
Climbed up a tall, tall mountain
D
I met an old, old man
A
He sat beneath a sapling tree
D
He said now if you got some questions
Em
Go and lay them at my feet
D
But my time here is brief
A
So you'll have to pick just three
[Chorus]
And I said
D Gmaj7
What do you do with the pieces of a broken heart?
Gmaj7 D
And how can a man like me remain in the light?
D D7
And if life is really as short as they say
G Gm
Then why is the night so long?
A
And then the sun went down
A (let ring) D
And he played for me this song

May I suggest that the Em/G controversy is because it is actually a Gmaj6 chord? I'm hearing an E tone in there, but Em isn't right.A couple voicings:Gmaj6 - x20000, x22033Also I'm hearing the transition back to D at the end of the line. Dand how can a man like me remain in the light?
+4

I think that it should be as below:
D
and how can a man like me remain in the light?
+4

Request for help! The line where it says " A (let ring) D" - when you type (let ring) it makes the line text and the chords are not recognized as chords and won't transpose and now I've lost to original key! :) can you take out "(let ring)"
