Intro: GC2Em7D7
GC2Em7D7 If only you were a ship, I'd sail the seven seas GC2Em7D7 Claiming all the land in the name of you and me GC2Em7D7 Oh We drift down the coast in search of a new life GC2Em7D7 But all we'd find is gold just to misdirect our minds
Don't say no, oh don't burn yourself alive, wont you take one last breath, and hold on tight And when the clouds come rolling in to pour their summer tears upon your burning skin, ill be waiting here
If only I was a star sewn into the sky Hanging from a thread that keeps you awake at night And when we would look up the fog would cover me Hiding all that we share and all that we can be
Ill be waiting here Ill be standing here Are you listening? I hope you're listening
This is the chord progressing for the whole song. Just listen to the song to get the pattern, its pretty easy to work out. If you have anything different let me know - [email protected]
