Intro
Em A D B
Verse 1:
Em A
You can fit everything you know
D B
In a bottle for you to show
Em A
Pick your brain apart and put it in
D
And build it again
B
With needles and pins
Em A
Everything you have earned is a ship
D B
With blue waves crashing into it
Em A
But nothing can touch your happy thoughts anymore
D B
With your glass ceiling, walls, and floor
Pre-Chorus
Em
Sailing on a ship in a bottle
A
Anchor all your thoughts to the bottom
D
Pulling ropes and pulling your head back
B
To see what is breaking the foremast
Em
You set sail alone, there is no crew
A
No one on the deck who can help you
D
This is all your own battle to win
B
This is your ship and you are the captain
Em
Oh, captain, let's make a deal
A
Where we both say the things that we both really feel
D
I feel scared and I'm starting to sink
B
And I only sink deeper the deeper I think
Em
Oh, captain
Em A
Oh, captain, deal
A D
Oh, captain, deal
D B
Oh, captain, deal
Em
Oh woah
Verse 2:
Em A
There are red spots under your eyes
D
From when you cry
B
Into the sky
Em A
Ocean waters rising above your neck, mmm
D
You feel the glass
B
Start to crack
Pre-Chorus
Em
Sailing on a ship in a bottle
A
Water's leaking through holes in the bottom
D
Flying flags of ships that have long since
B
Sat at the floor of the sea, but in defense
Em
You set sail alone, there is no crew
A
No one on the deck who can help you
D
This is all your own battle to win
B
This is your ship and you are the captain
Em
Oh, captain, let's make a deal
A
Where we both say the things that we both really feel
D
I feel scared and I'm starting to sink
B
And I only sink deeper the deeper I think
Em
Oh, captain, make up your mind
A
Before the salt burns your eyes and you run out of time
D
'cause you're popping the cork
D
You get lost in your brain
B
And you lose touch with all the things that made you feel sane
Em
Oh, captain
Em A
Oh, captain, deal
A D
Oh, captain, deal
D B
Oh, captain, deal
Em
Oh woah
