The Ship Song 
 
Intro G D C G D 
 
G               D 
Come sail your ships around me  
C                        G         D 
and burn your bridges down  
G                          D 
we make a little history baby,  
C                    G     D 
everytime you come around. 
 
Come loose your dogs upon me  

and let your hair hang down 

You are a little mystery to me 

Everytime you come around 
 

C                         G                  D 
We talk about it all night long 
C                     G       D 
We define our moral ground 
Em                          C 
But when I crawl into your arms 
                          G               D 
Everything comes tumbling down 
 
Come sail your ships around me                                   
and burn your bridges down                            
we make a little history baby,                          
everytime you come around. 
 
Your face has fallen sad now  
for you know the time is nigh 
When I must remove your wings  
and you, you must try to fly 
 
Come sail your ships around me                                   
and burn your bridges down                            
we make a little history baby,                          
everytime you come around. 
 
Come loose your dogs upon me  
and let your hair hang down 
You are a little mystery to me 
Everytime you come around
