INTRO
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
G Cadd9 Em7 B7sus4

VERSE 1
G Cadd9
We sent out the SOS call
G Cadd9
It was a quater past four
G
In the morning
Cadd9 Em7 B7sus4
When the storm broke our second anchor line.
G Cadd9
Four months at sea.
G Cadd9
Four months of calm seas
G Cadd9
Only to be pounded in the shallows
Em7 B7sus4
Off of the tip of Montauk Point.

VERSE 2
G Cadd9
They call them rogues.
G Cadd9
They travel fast and alone,
G Cadd9
One hundred foot faces
Em7 B7sus4
Of God's good ocean gone wrong
G Cadd9
What they call love is a risk,
G Cadd9
Cause you will always get hit
G
Out of nowhere
Cadd9 Em7 B7sus4
By some wave and end up on your own.

CHORUS 1
C G
The hole in the hull defied the crews attempts
Em7 B7sus4
To bail us out.
C G
And flooded the engines and radio
Em7 B7sus4
And half buried bow.


VERSE 3
G Cadd9
Your tongue is a rudder.
G Cadd9
It steers the whole ship.
G Cadd9
Sends your words past your lips
Em7 B7sus4
Or keeps them safe behind your teeth.
G Cadd9
But the wrong words will strand you.
G Cadd9
Come off course while you sleep.
G Cadd9
Sweep your boat out to sea
Em7 B7sus4
Or dashed it to bits on the reef.

VERSE 4
G Cadd9
The vessel groans
G Cadd9
The ocean pressures its frame.
G Cadd9
Off the port I see the lighthouse
Em7 B7sus4
Through the sleet and the rain.
G Cadd9
And I wish for one more day
G Cadd9
To give my love and repay debts.
G Cadd9
But the morning finds our bodies
Em7 B7sus4
Washed up thirty miles west.

CHORUS 2
C G
They say that the captain
Em7
Stays fast with the ship
B7sus4
Through still and storm.
C G
But this ain't the Dakota.
Em7
And the water is cold.
B7sus4
We won't have to fight for long.

ENDING
G
This is the end.

This story's old

But it goes on and on
Cadd9
Until we disappear.

Calm me and let me taste

The salt that you breathed
G
While you were underneath.

I am the one who haunts your dreams
Cadd9
Of mountains sunk below the sea.

I spoke the words but never
Em7
Gave a thought to what they all could mean.

I know that this is what you want.
B7sus4
A funeral keeps both of us apart.

You know that you are not alone.
G
Need you like water in my lungs.
