Starts out with a G strummed up and then...

         G               D              C               G      D
(SW)    Come sail your ships around me and burn your bridges down
         G                D             C             G      D
        We make a little history baby, everytime you come around
         G                D               C            G         D
        Come lose your thoughts upon me, and let your hair hang down
         G                 D             C            G       D
        You are a little mystery baby, everytime you call around
         C                G          D
        We talk about it all night long
                                (ALL... NIGHT LONG)
         C                 G      D
        And we define our moral ground
                             (OH...YEAH...)
         Em               G                C                    G       D
(*both) But when I crawl into your arms, everything, it comes tumbling down
         G              D                C              G       D
        Come sail your ships around me, and burn your bridges down
         G                 D            C             G     D
        We make a little history baby, everytime you come around
         C                      G   D    C                G       D
(JN)    Are your faces falling sad now, for you know the time is night
         Em           G                     C             G       D
        Well I must remove your wings, and you, you must try and fly

        (do the beginning [the chorus] a couple times)

        *solo*
