And The Ship Sails On

 C             F
One from the heart could be
     C            F
The East Village eye should be
 C                            Am
Fluorescent lights above the kiss goodnight
      F               G
And love will always stay
         C
Beyond words
C                  F x2
 C                    F
The first breath of Spring must be
     C             F
The last days of school might be
     C                  Am
The first taste of forbidden fruits
        F                          G
And dancing with a girl who can afford good suits
    C            F
Your lips on my neck
   C                F
Sunbathing on the deck

   C
Of the love boat
   Am
In clover we float
   F                        G
A happiness that makes you choke
    C               F
Beyond words
C                   F
 G
The words of love and of disgust
     F
Are lost in the wind like so much dust
     G
The talks break down

Two lovers kiss
     F
What words in the world
                   C           F
Are we gonna miss?

[Verse]
   C                F
And the ship sails on
    C                   F
And when our lives have gone
    C              Am
What epitaph will mean a thing?
   F                                G
What're you gonna say when the phone don't ring?
  C                   F
Was your life quite good?
   C                            F
And were your book shelves made out of wood?
   C                               Am
To hold the books they write when their heroes die
   F                       G
And the loss they always find
         C              F
Beyond words

   C                 F
And the ship sails on...
