Sailor And Siren

F                  Am
You say you're not mine
Bb          F
What are we then?
                   Am   Bb       F
Somewhere down the line I lost a friend
                        Am
And I know it's hard to know just what you need
Bb           F
And what you want
               Am
But everyday I try to win your heart
Bb            F
I hope that's enough

[Instrumental]
F  Am  Bb  (x2)

[Verse 1]
F                Am
Your arms are an ocean
                    Bb               F
Your soul and your eyes are crashing wild and worn and blue
                            Am
Though I've been working to weather the waters
     Bb              F                                           Am
I'll never reach the rocks and get to your hands, and heart, and works of art
     Bb              F
That break apart the smarter thoughts in me
               Am                           Bb                    F
But how does a sailor fight the ways that a siren sparkles in the light?

[Verse 2]
                       Am
Where'd we hide in the shallow tide
         Bb                F
When the ships were pulled away?
                Am
Power lines and ancient pines
        Bb             F
I can't keep you in my bay

[Verse 3]
                        Am                       Bb
And I know it's hard to clear your heart of this
         F
And move along
                  Am              Bb            F
But maybe by your side is not the place where I belong.

[Chorus]
F                  Am
You say you're not mine
Bb          F
What are we then?
                   Am   Bb       F
Somewhere down the line I lost a friend
                        Am
And I know it's hard to know just what you need
Bb           F
And what you want
               Am
But everyday I try to win your heart
N.C.
I hope that's enough
