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
