It’s (Db)keep ing me a wake.

It’s the (Bbm)house tell ing you to close your (Db)eyes.

And (Bbm)some days (Gb)I can’t e ven trust my self.

It’s (Bbm)kill ing me to (Gb)see you this way.

’Cause though the (Bbm)truth may (Gb)va ry, this ship will (Ab)car ry our (Bm)bod ies (Gb)safe to the shore.

(Ab)Hey!

(Ab)Hey!

(Ab)Hey!

(Ab)There’s an (Bbm)old voice (Gb)in my head that’s hold ing me back.

Well, (Bbm)tell her that I (Gb)miss our lit tle (Db)talks.

(Bbm)Soon it will be (Gb)o ver and (Db)bu ried with our past.

We (Bbm)used to play out side when where (Db)young and full of life and full of love.

(Bbm)Some

Your (Bbm)mind is play ing (Gb)tricks on you my dear.

Al though the (Bbm)truth may (Gb)va ry, this ship will (Ab)car ry our (Bbm)bod ies (Gb)safe to the shore.

(Ab)Hey!

(Ab)Hey!

You’re (Bbm)gone, gone, gone a way.

I watched you dis ap pear.

All that’s left is a ghost of you.

Now we’re torn, torn, torn a part there’s noth ing we can do.

Just let me go, we’ll meet a gain soon.

Now (Bbm)wait, wait, (Gb)wait for me.

Please hang a round.

I’ll (Bbm)see you when I (Gb)fall a sleep.

Hey!

Don’t (Bbm)lis ten to a (Gb)word I say.

(Ab)Hey!

The (Bbm)screams all (Gb)sound the same.

(Ab)Hey!

Al though the (Bbm)truth may (Gb)va ry, this ship will (Ab)car ry our (Bbm)bod ies (Gb)safe to the shore.

Don’t (Bbm)lis ten to a (Gb)word I say.

(Ab)Hey!

The (Bbm)screams all (Gb)sound the same.

(Ab)Hey!

Al though the (Bbm)truth may (Gb)va ry, this ship will (Ab)car ry our (Bbm)bod ies (Gb)safe to the shore.
