Verse
We sent out the GSOS Cmaj7call
It was a Gquater past Cmaj7four
In the Gmorning
When the Cmaj7storm broke our Emsecond anchor Em7line.
GFour months at Cmaj7sea.
Four Gmonths of calm Cmaj7seas
Only to be Gpounded in the Cmaj7shallows
Off of the Emtip of Montauk Em7Point.
GThey call them Cmaj7rogues.
They travel Gfast and Cmaj7alone,
One Ghundred foot Cmaj7faces
Of God's good Emocean gone Em7wrong
What they call Glove is a Cmaj7risk,
Cause you will Galways get Cmaj7hit
Out of Gnowhere
By some Cmaj7wave and end Emup on your Em7own.
Chorus
CThe hole in the Ghull defied the crews attempts
EmTo bail us Em7out.
CAnd flooded the Gengines and radio
EmAnd half buried Em7bow.
Verse
Your Gtongue is a Cmaj7rudder.
It Gsteers the whole Cmaj7ship.
Sends your Gwords past your Cmaj7lips
Or keeps them Emsafe behind your Em7teeth.
But the Gwrong words will Cmaj7strand you.
Come off Gcourse while you Cmaj7sleep.
Sweep your Gboat out to Cmaj7sea
Or dashed it to Embits on the Em7reef.
GThe vessel Cmaj7groans
The ocean Gpressures its Cmaj7frame.
Off the Gport I see the Cmaj7lighthouse
Through the Emsleet and the Em7rain.
And I wish Gfor one more Cmaj7day
To give my Glove and repay Cmaj7debts.
But the Gmorning finds our Cmaj7bodies
Washed up Emthirty miles Em7west.
Chorus
CThey say that the Gcaptain
Stays fast with the Emship
Through still and Em7storm.
CBut this ain't the GDakota.
And the water is Emcold.
We won't have to fight for Em7long.
Ending
This is the Gend.
This story's old
But it goes on and on
Until we Cmaj7disappear.
Calm me and let me taste
The salt that you breathed
While you were Gunderneath.
I am the one who haunts your dreams
Of mountains sunk below the Cmaj7sea.
I spoke the words but never
Gave a thought to what they all could Emmean.
I know that this is what you want.
A funeral keeps both of us Em7apart.
You know that you are not alone.
Need you like water in my Glungs.
