Intro F Fmaj7 F Fmaj7 F Camj7 Am Am7 Verse
We sent out the FSOS Fmaj7call It was a Fquater past Fmaj7four In the Fmorning When the Fmaj7storm broke our Amsecond anchor Am7line. FFour months at Fmaj7sea. Four Fmonths of calm Fmaj7seas Only to be Fpounded in the Fmaj7shallows Off of the Amtip of Montauk Am7Point.
FThey call them Fmaj7rogues. They travel Ffast and Fmaj7alone, One Fhundred foot Fmaj7faces Of God's good Amocean gone Am7wrong What they call Flove is a Fmaj7risk, Cause you will Falways get Fmaj7hit Out of Fnowhere By some Fmaj7wave and end Amup on your Am7own.
Chorus
FThe hole in the Fhull defied the crews attempts AmTo bail us Am7out. FAnd flooded the Fengines and radio AmAnd half buried Am7bow.
Verse
Your Ftongue is a Fmaj7rudder. It Fsteers the whole Fmaj7ship. Sends your Fwords past your Fmaj7lips Or keeps them Amsafe behind your Am7teeth. But the Fwrong words will Fmaj7strand you. Come off Fcourse while you Fmaj7sleep. Sweep your Fboat out to Fmaj7sea Or dashed it to Ambits on the Am7reef.
FThe vessel Fmaj7groans The ocean Fpressures its Fmaj7frame. Off the Fport I see the Fmaj7lighthouse Through the Amsleet and the Am7rain. And I wish Ffor one more Fmaj7day To give my Flove and repay Fmaj7debts. But the Fmorning finds our Fmaj7bodies Washed up Amthirty miles Am7west.
Chorus
FThey say that the Fcaptain Stays fast with the Amship Through still and Am7storm. FBut this ain't the FDakota. And the water is Amcold. We won't have to fight for Am7long.
Ending
This is the Fend. This story's old
But it goes on and on
Until we Fmaj7disappear. Calm me and let me taste
The salt that you breathed
While you were Funderneath. I am the one who haunts your dreams Of mountains sunk below the Fmaj7sea.
I spoke the words but never
Gave a thought to what they all could Ammean. I know that this is what you want. A funeral keeps both of us Am7apart.
You know that you are not alone.
Need you like water in my Flungs.
