INTRO G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 Em7 B7sus4 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. 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. C G B7sus4 The hole in the hull defied the crews attempts Em7 To bail us out. C G And flooded the engines and radio Em7 B7sus4 And half buried bow. 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. 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. 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. 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 C9 f 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.
