My Little Sinking Ship(Keyboard chords)

	        
Intro: C 


C                                        G 
You're my little sinking ship, not quite built to hold such weight 
C                                  F 
We were raised for the suburbs but we took to the waves 
C                                    G 
And you carry me around, from little town to little town 
Am            F              C 
Never knowing how much I need 
F            G              C 
Never asking a thing from me 


Verse
 
C                                   G 
I found you on the doorstep, it was brave to leave your room 
C                          F 
Mine is a safe place, I'll not abandon you 
C                       F      G                      C G C 
Or that perfect nuclear family... that I left behind 

C                                   G 
Now I'm paying too much rent so you buy me some incense 
C                                      F 
You said you were proud when I stopped smoking cigarettes 
C                          F            G                       C G C 
And I hope that you're not disappointed... that I started again 

C                                         G 
And at that awful backyard party where we stole a bottle of red 
C                                F 
Hopped a train, we got drunk and just sang songs instead 
C                          F          G                             C G C 
And later on the couch you told me it was the best trip you'd taken 

 
C                                        G 
You're my little sinking ship, not quite built to hold such weight 
C                                  F 
We were raised for the suburbs but we took to the waves 
C                                    G 
And you carry me around, from little town to little town 
Am            F               C 
Never knowing how much I need 
F              G             C 
Never asking a thing from me 


Verse
 
C                              G 
Sorry you had to hide from the bouncers at my show 
C                           F 
I organized an all-ages one just so you could go 
C                             F         G                         C G C 
And I wrote this song an hour before... to try and make you smile 

C                                G                 
And Liz, do not look up to me, I am a drunken mess 
C                                   F 
You're so god damn creative, a real force to be reckoned with 
C                                        G 
And I will say with all my heart and soul 
G 
That I'll follow you wherever you may roam 
             C        G C 
Wherever you may roam 

Verse
 
C                              G 
Today's the family day so we'll spend it together 
C                                     F 
Don't tell Mum and Dad, but you're my favourite family member 
C                               F    G                                      C G C 
You always were the good child, I... was the one who needed all the attention 

C                              G     
And you always take my side in battles that are mine 
C                                        F 
And you say 'Will, you fucked up', and I promise that I won't next time 
C                                            G 
And even though we both know I'm going to, I know you'll be on my side 


C                                        G                         
You're my little sinking ship, not quite built to hold such weight 
C                                  F  
We were raised for the suburbs but we took to the waves 
C                                    G 
And you carry me around, from little town to little town 
Am            F          C 
Never knowing how much I need 
Am            F          C 
Never knowing how much I need you 
     F           G              C G C 
That you can ask anything of me
