Tragically Hip - Nautical disaster

I had this ^Emdream where I r^Delished the f^Gray and the ^Dscreaming filled ^Emmy head all ^Dday. ^{C D} It was as ^Emthough I'd been ^Dspit here, settled ^Gin, into the ^Dpocket of a ^Emlighthouse on ^Dsome rocky ^Csocket, off the ^Dcoast of France, dear. ^{Em D} One after^Gnoon, four thousand ^Dmen died in the ^Emwater ^Dhere and ^Cfive hundred ^Dmore were thrashing ^Emmadly as ^Dparasites ^Gmight in ^Dyour blood. ^{Em D C D}

Now I was in a ^Emlifeboat designe^Dd for ten and ten ^Gonly, any^Dthing that system^Ematic would get you ^Dhated. It's ^Cnot a deal nor a ^Dtest nor a ^Emlove of something ^Dfated-(^Guh). ^D The selection ^Emwas quick, the crew was ^Dpicked (in ^Gorder) and ^Dthose left in the ^Emwater got ^Dkicked off our ^Cpantleg ^D and we ^Emheaded for home. ^{G C D}

Then the ^Emdream ends when the ^Dphone rings, you doing ^Galright he said it's ^Dout there most ^Emdays and nights, but ^Donly a ^Cfool would comp^Dlain. Any^Emway ^DSusan, if you ^Glike, our conver^Dsation is as ^Emfaint as a ^Dsound in my ^Cmemory, ^D as those ^Emfingernails^D scratching on ^Gmy hull. ^{D Em D C D}
