Intro: F#-B-F#-B-F#-B-Ebm-G#m-
Verse 1:
F# B
We sent out the SOS call
F# B
It was a quarter past four
F#
In the morning
B
When the storm broke our
Ebm G#m
second anchor line
F# B
Four months at sea
F# B
Four months of calm seas
F#
Only to be pounded
B
in the shallows
Ebm G#m
Off of the tip of Montauk Point
Verse 2:
F# B
They call them rogues
F# B
They travel fast and alone
F# B
One hundred foot faces
Ebm G#m
Of God's good ocean gone wrong
F# B
What they call love is a risk
F# B
Cause you will always get hit
F#
Out of nowhere
B Ebm G#m
By some wave and end up on your own
Chorus 1:
B F#/Bb
The hole in the hull defied
the crews attempts
Ebm G#m
To bail us out
B F#/Bb
And flooded the engines and
Ebm G#m
radio And half buried bow
Post Chorus: F#-B-F#-B-F#-B-Ebm-G#m-
Verse 3:
F# B
Your tongue is a rudder
F# B
It steers the whole ship
F# B
Sends your words past your lips
Ebm G#m
Or keeps them safe behind your teeth
F# B
But the wrong words will strand you
F# B
Come off course while you sleep
F# B
Sweep your boat out to sea
Ebm G#m
Or dashed it to bits on the reef
Verse 4:
F# B
The vessel groans
F# B
The ocean pressures its frame
F# B
Off the port I see the lighthouse
Ebm G#m
Through the sleet and the rain
F# B
And I wish for one more day
F# B
To give my love and repay debts
F# B
But the morning finds our bodies
Ebm G#m
Washed up thirty miles west
Chorus 2:
B F#
They say that the captain
Ebm
Stays fast with the ship
G#m
Through still and storm
B F#
But this ain't the Dakota
Ebm
And the water is cold
G#m
We won't have to fight for long
Outro:
F#
This is the end
This story's old
But it goes on and on
B
Until we disappear
Calm me and let me taste
The salt that you breathed
While you were underneath
F#
I am the one who
haunts your dreams
Of mountains sunk
below the sea
B
I spoke the words but never
Gave a thought to what
they all could mean.
Ebm
I know that this is what you want
A funeral keeps both of us apart
B
You know that you are not alone
Need you like water in my lungs
F#
This is the end
This story's old
But it goes on and on
B
Until we disappear
Calm me and let me taste
The salt that you breathed
While you were underneath
F#
I am the one who
haunts your dreams
Of mountains sunk
below the sea
B
I spoke the words but never
Gave a thought to what
they all could mean.
Ebm
I know that this is what you want
A funeral keeps both of us apart
B
You know that you are not alone
Need you like water in my lungs
F#(hold)
Thsi is the end
