D Bm G
[Verse 1]
D Bm
Well humankind, he draws a line
G
He draws a noose, parables and truths
D Bm
Do you remember the water, pour over you?
G
When I jumped in, you jumped in too
D Bm
Now the songs tell me, walk like a man
G Bm A
But every time I do, I keep falling down
[Chorus]
D A G
Now I sing with my eyes wide open,
D A G
Because I can’t bear to close them these days
D A G
And I’ve got nothing here left to remind me
D A G
I’m the wreck of a ship, tossed on the waves
A D
I’m the wreck of a ship, tossed on the waves
[Instrumental]
Bm G
[Verse 2]
D Bm
I pull a scarf over my head
G
Pull my heart across the forest
D Bm
Sky of stars leads from the fire
G
Smokey breath, I wish it was Summer
D Bm
Another place, another time,
G D A
The night was yours and you were mine
[Chorus]
D A G
Now I sing with my eyes wide open,
D A G
Because I can’t bear to close them these days
D A G
And I’ve got nothing here left to remind me
D A G
I’m the wreck of a ship, tossed on the waves
A D
I’m the wreck of a ship, tossed on the waves
[Instrumental]
Bm G
[Verse 3]
D Bm
I zip a coat up to my chin
G
Kill the cold I can’t let in
D Bm
Too many thoughts too many times
G
Clouds and commets and worlds defined
D Bm
Always a home, always the wind
G D A
Always in love songs, it has to end
[Chorus]
D A G
Now I sing with my eyes wide open,
D A G
Because I can’t bear to close them these days
D A G
And I’ve got nothing here left to remind me
D A G
I’m the wreck of a ship, tossed on the waves
A D
I’m the wreck of a ship, tossed on the waves
D A G
And now I sing with my eyes wide open,
D A G
Because I can’t bear to close them these days
D A G
And I’ve got nothing here left to remind me
D A G
I’m the wreck of a ship, tossed on the waves
N.C
I’m the wreck of a ship,
