The Crystal Ship chords
The Doors

Capo I *

           Em          Bm
Before you slip into unconsciousness,
    Am            Em
I'd like to have another kiss
 E      Em       B         E
Another flashing chance at bliss,
 D      E      D      E
another kiss, another kiss

    Em                   Bm
The days are bright, and filled with pain,
  Am               Em
enclose me in your gentle rain
    E        Em        B     E
The time you ran was too insane,
      D     E           D     E
we'll meet again, we'll meet again

Piano solo

    Em                 Bm
Oh, tell me where your freedom lies,
    Am                      Em
the streets are fields that never die
  E     Em      B       E
Deliver me from reasons why,
      D      E        D      E
you'd rather cry, I'd rather fly

    Em              Bm
The crystal ship is being filled
  Am                Em
A thousand girls, a thousand thrills
  E       Em      B          E
A million ways to spend your time
     D      E          D      E
When we get back, I'll drop a line
