Intro: Am 

Am
When the hills let go
Slowly fade into the water like some ancient lover
                      G
On a ship filled with ghosts
                    Am
It's something to behold

Am
When the paper thin girls
With twisting little braids in their hair,
                               G
They take off their coats and throw
Pebbles and stones from the side of the boat,
           F
Crying out
            G                      Am
The stones they float, the stones they float
          F            G                          Am   
Oh my God, the stones they float, the stones they float

Am
Down the burning ropes
Past the places where the steal beams meet concrete skies
                            G
You make your bed under the moonlight
                           Am
I think it's time we said goodbye

Am
Cause nothing moves in the warm air
And words that once would cut like a knife,
                                 G
They just hang in the cloud and you're
Pushed by the lord,
                                 F
But you're pulled by the crowds and
           G                 Am
You're overboard, you're overboard
          F          G                Am
Oh my God, she's overboard, she's overboard

Am                 G    F (last two strumming)
My love she's overboard
               Am G F (strumming)        
She's overboard
                         Am G F
My love she's over board

Some uuuhs and aaaaahs with Am G F

Am
Not a shell unbroken
In the valley where my heartache and the timbers lay
                         G
It's not the time to be hanging around here
                     Am
You know what some might say

Am
That people get too reckless
That even with the simplest of crimes
They leave, blood behind,
     G                                      F
As I clean the knife for the very last time
       G                  Am
I think she knows, I think she knows
          F       G                   Am
Oh my God, I think she knows, I think she knows

I think she know

Uuuuhs and aAaahhs with Am G F
