[Verse 1]
DOrphans of the storm, watch them F#msail between the waves DOrphans of the storm, say a F#mprayer and wish the rain away BmMother's milk and angel hair, Bbholy books and bones DThe sirens on the Cshore calling themD home DBreakfast on the lawn in the F#msweet September sway DHelpless and forlorn since the F#mpills and powders passed their way
[Pre-Chorus]
BmLost themselves, forever seeking, Bbsearching pole to pole While the Dneedle and the Cthread stitches themD whole
[Chorus]
BmEmpty shells, only the shallow Bbknow themselves Deeper and deeper, Dday by day, to keep the weary Bworld at bay No prescription Emfor the pain only a sky of Bbblue and grey No one to save them, Dsailing their sinking Cships up and aDway
[Instrumental with whistling] D F#m D F#m [Pre-Chorus]
We Bmlost ourselves, forever seeking, Bbsearching pole to pole While the Dneedle and the Cthread stitches usD whole again
[Chorus]
BmEmpty shells, only the shallow Bbknow themselves Deeper and deeper, Dday by day, to keep the weary Bworld at bay Raise your mast and Emfly away into a sky of Bbblue and grey No one to save us, Dsailing our sinking Cships up and awDay DSailing our sinking Cships up and aDway DSailing our sinking Cships up and aDway
