Shipwreck

[Intro]

D Dadd9 Bm Em7 A7

 

[Verse 1]

D

The tide is high

                  F#m

My heart needs to let go

               G

I’ll drop it in the depths

                  A7

Now it’s anchored far below

        D

Now I’m free

             F#m

Free of your hold on me

                G

But I feel like a fool,

                 A7

a shipwreck on a barstool

 

[Chorus]

        D  Dadd9  Bm

Singing I want to be

            Em7             A7

that lonely boat out on the sea

    D  Dadd9  Bm

Oh, I want to be

            Em7             A7

that lonely boat out on the sea

 

[Verse 2]

    D

And after the storm,

                  F#m

when the world is quiet

              G

Will I embrace the peace

           A7

Or start a riot?

     D

Will I be with my heart once more,

                    F#m

when it’s no longer yours?

                G

Will I still be a fool,

                 A7

a shipwreck on a barstool?

 

[Chorus]

        D  Dadd9  Bm

Singing I want to be

            Em7             A7

that lonely boat out on the sea

D  Dadd9  Bm

I want to be

            Em7             A7

that lonely boat out on the sea

 

[Bridge]

       Em

Oh I’m free

             A7

Free of your hold on me

             D                                    F#

Because this heart of mine beats at the bottom of the Mississippi

       Em

Oh I’m free

             A7

Free of your hold on me

             D                                    A7

Because this heart of mine beats at the bottom of the Mississippi

 

[Chorus]

D  Dadd9  Bm

I want to be

            Em7             A7

that lonely boat out on the sea

    D  Dadd9  Bm

Oh, I want to be

            Em7             A7

that lonely boat out on the sea

 

            D Dadd9 Bm Em7 A7 D

Out on the sea
