C         F                   Dm       Am
You dug a hole for me in your backyard
  C    F          G         C
A time capsule of nostalgic treats
            F                   Dm           Am
You found a place for me in the back of your mind
C      F                G      C
Dig me up before you're out of time


[Pre-Chorus]
F         C       G        C
Save your sorrow, crave my light
Dm     C          G        C
Eat my heart out, fork and knife


[Chorus]
  F                        Dm          Am
A thousand ships struck my will to the ground
   Dm
He crawled to his feet
        G          C
Did not wait to be found
    Dm                 F       Am
Her face led you to be lost at sea
    F                    Dm        C
You drowned and what you found was me


[Verse 2]
           Dm            Am
I wrote my goals upon my palm
       F          G
With a ball-point pen
           Am
I had your hand
                 F
Don't sweat now, they're gone
G                      C
I'll make 'em up again


[Pre-Chorus]
F         C       G        C
Save your sorrow, crave my light
Dm     C          G        C
Eat my heart out, fork and knife


[Chorus]
  F                        Dm          Am
A thousand ships struck my will to the ground
   Dm
He crawled to his feet
        G          C
Did not wait to be found
    Dm                 F       Am
Her face led you to be lost at sea
    F                    Dm        C
You drowned and what you found was me

[Bridge]
Dm               Am
You have built a tent of walls
G               C
I won't sleep beneath them
Dm           F      Am
Bury them in my old home
      G                     C
Let's open your heart again


[Chorus]
  F                        Dm          Am
A thousand ships struck my will to the ground
   Dm
He crawled to his feet
        G          C
Did not wait to be found
    Dm                 F       Am
Her face led you to be lost at sea
    F                    Dm        C
You drowned and what you found was me


[Outro]
  F                        Dm          Am
A thousand ships struck my will to the ground
   Dm
He crawled to his feet
        G          C
Did not wait to be found
    Dm                 F       Am
Her face led you to be lost at sea
    F                    Dm        C
You drowned and what you found was me
