Joe Diffie - Ships that dont come in

I could t^Gell he'd had a tough life By the w^C/Gay he sat and stared And ^Cme, I'd come to push and shove So ^GI pulled up a chair We ta^Glked of roads untraveled We ta^C/Glked of love untrue Of st^Crings that come unraveled We were k^Gings and kindred fools And j^Amust when I'd hit bottom That o^Dld man raised his glass And said at l^Ameast we had our chances There's th^Dose who never have

So h^Cere's to all the so^Dldiers Who have e^Gver ^D/F#died in v^Emain The i^Amnsane locked up i^Dn themselves G G - Am - G/B - C The homeless down on Main To th^Cose who stand on em^Dpty shores Bm C C - G/B - Am And spit against the wind And t^Amhose who ^G/Bwait for^Cever For ships that don't come i^Gn

He said it's o^Gnly life's illusions That b^C/Gring us to this bar To p^Cick up these old crutches And com^Gpare each other's scars 'Cuz the th^Gings we're calling heartaches Hell, they're h^C/Gardly worth our time We b^Citch about a dollar When there's th^Gose without a dime. And as he or^Amdered one last round, he said D C - G/B - Am I guess we can't complain ^AmGod made life a gamble And we^D're still in the game.

And t^Amhose who ^G/Bwait for^Cever For ships that don’t ^Gcome in
