VERSE: Cm I am standing here today G Without a dollar to my name Cm I’ve paid my dues, I’ve jumped my claim GCm I’m a child of the wind.
VERSE: Cm Yes, I have sailed, and I have sunk G I’ve died of thirst, and I’ve been drunk Cm Everything I own is packed into a trunk GCm It’s at the bottom of the ocean
CHORUS: GCmEb Oh yeah, the ships go in, the ships go out GCm The tide rolls in, and my days run out GCmEb Everyday I’m on the watch AbG For the boat I lost FmGCm I’m all washed up
VERSE: Cm Yes, I have walked down foreign streets G I have heard secrets that I didn’t keep Cm I once loved a girl, she was so sweet GCm She rotted out all of my teeth
CHORUS: GCmEb Oh yeah, the ships go in, the ships go out GCm The tide rolls in, and my days run out GCmEb Everyday I’m on the watch AbG For the boat I lost FmGCm I’m all washed up
BREAK: FCm It’s easy to get home GCm Under a tail wind BbEbBbEb But even when your anchor’s dropped BbEbBbAb Your seasons stopped, you're timbers dropped GCm And you’re all washed up.
VERSE: Cm Yes, I’ve been baked, and I’ve been burned G I’ve been loved, and I’ve been spurned Cm I’ve forgotten more than I have ever learned GCm It’s at the bottom of a bottle
CHORUS: GCmEb Oh yeah, the ships go in, the ships go out GCm The tide rolls in, and my days run out GCmEb Everyday I’m on the watch AbG For the boat I lost FmGCm I’m all washed up FmGCm Oh yes I’m all washed up FmGCm Oh yes I’m all washed up
