Kommode - Captain of your Sinking Ship
Analog Dance Music (2017)
[Verse]
Bbm7
Oh, you tore my fences down
Ebm7
Bulldozered into my town
Gbmaj7 Ab
Promises of changes within reach
Bbm7
Showed me views I've never seen
Ebm7
Never grasped, not even dreamed
Gbmaj7 Ab
What I had grew paler day by day
[Chorus]
Bbm7 Ebm7
No, no
Gbmaj7 Ab
I don't wanna be the captain of your sinking ship
Bbm7 Ebm7
No, no
Gbmaj7 Ab
I'll be gone too if you're gonna run from it
[Verse]
Bbm7
Pictures of an other place
Ebm7
Prospects I have never faced
Gbmaj7 Ab
Everything you show me seems to glow
Bbm7
And below your feet, behold
Ebm7
The street you walk is paved with gold
Gbmaj7 Ab
And what's in your way you walk right through
Bbm7
But shine with me is all you do
Ebm7
And when I shine I shine your shoes
Gbmaj7 Ab
Would this be your take on give and take?
Bbm7
And behind the flashy scene,
Ebm7
I recognize the signs of dream
Gbmaj7 Ab
So I ring, I ring, I ring, I ring the bell
[Chorus]
Bbm7 Ebm7
No, no
Gbmaj7 Ab
I don't wanna be the captain of your sinking ship
Bbm7 Ebm7
No, no
Gbmaj7 Ab
I'll be gone too if you're gonna run from it

[Verse]
Bbm7
Oh you're great, I can't refuse
Ebm7
I'm saying "thank you" when abused
Gbmaj7 Ab
and the blows I take them as your gifts
Bbm7
But treasures cant be found this way
Ebm7
love is made of work, not play
Gbmaj7 Ab
but you've never been lonely so you're never gonna realize
[Breakdown]
