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.
