The Ship Song 
 
Intro G5 D5 C5 G5 D5 
 
G5               D5 
Come sail your ships around me  
C5                        G5         D5 
and burn your bridges down  
G5                          D5 
we make a little history baby,  
C5                    G5     D5 
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 
 

C5                         G5                  D5 
We talk about it all night long 
C5                     G5       D5 
We define our moral ground 
E5                          C5 
But when I crawl into your arms 
                          G5               D5 
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
