Shipboard Cook

F                   Am                  C
I wanna go to the ocean and send a postcard of my loneliness
F                      Am
Forgetting you is so elusive
C
I run away but it's always this
G
You're the only one
F
I love
C                          G
It's always been you
F                                      Am
And I wish I was conscripted in the Merchant Marines
 C                                                       G                  F
Shanghaied into service of sails and machines, just to stay alive
 F                                  Am
And my sister keeps it simple she's a shipboard cook
 C                                                         G                   F
She can drive a line, but if you take a look, she's kinda worried though

[Chorus]
Am
'Cause I keep hoping you will find me
C
I keep hoping you will find me
Am
Hoping you will find me
C                                G  F
I keep hoping you will find me
C
I'm always a ghost

[Verse 2]
F                                      Am
I tried your gypsy table ramblings and your seance stunt
C
I keep an open mind but I think it's just a front
 G                        F
Want to believe it though
F                                       Am
My sister says: 'Forget her boy, that's all that you need'
 C                                                         G
Pitching magical elixirs and bottles full of mead for a broken heart

 F
It's too late for that

[Bridge]
 C
So light em up boys here's to your youth
 G                                F
Sing loud enough to tell the truth
C
I lost myself and that's where I lost you
 G                              F
Ohh oh oh, let go of that whipping post
 C
I'm always a ghost

[Verse 3]
Am
You're about as haunted as a darkened basement
C
I've got all the chances of a dog in a settlement
E
I live by her secrets, she'll never tell
G                                      F
I ride along without 'em on a deep sea swell
 Am
I heard there's someone new, and she starts to talk
C
She's the merry widow on the widow's walk
 E
And the fear is I'm the one no matter where you are
 G                          F
In this twisted, fucked up film noir

[Chorus]
Am
And I'm hoping you will find me
 C
I keep hoping you will find me
 Am
Hoping you will find me
C
I keep hoping you will find me
 G
Yeah yeah
C
So light em up boys here's to your youth
 G                             F
Sing loud enough to tell the truth
C
I lost myself and that's where I lost you
 G                                F
Ohh oh oh, let go of that whipping post

[Post-chorus]
F               C
I'm always a ghost
 G             F
I'm always a ghost
 G             C
I'm always a ghost
G               F
I'm always a ghost

I'm always a ghost
