My Sad Captains chords by Elbow

Tuning: Standard

Intro: G (for a few bars) then G (2 bars), Em, C, (1 bar each) then back to G. I think it's in simple 4/4 if that helps anyone.

G
I'm running out of miracles
Em     C         G
    Oh my soul
G
And the streets are lined with one-man shows
Em      C         G
    Oh my soul
G
Corner boys were moved along
Em      C         G
    Oh my soul
G

We're plummeting like crippled crows
Em      C         G
    Oh my soul

G            Em
  Oh, long before
C              G
You and I were born
G                                    Em
Others beat these benches with their empty cups
        C
To the night and its stars
        G
To be here, and now, and who we are

C                        G
Another sunrise with my sad captains
C                            G
With who I choose to lose my mind
C                                 G
And if it's so we only pass this way but once
         C                G
What a perfect waste of time

G
The BMX apothecary
Em     C         G
    Oh my soul
G
The architect of infamy
Em    C            G
  Oh my soul
G
For each and every train we missed
Em      C             G
   Oh my soul
G
A bitter little Eucharist
Em      C             G
    oh my soul

G            Em
  Oh, long before
C              G
You and I were born
G                                    Em
Others beat these benches with their empty cups
        C
To the night and its stars
        G
To be here, and now, and who we are

C                        G
Another sunrise with my sad captains
C                            G
With who I choose to lose my mind
C                                 G
And if it's so we only pass this way but once
         C                G
What a perfect waste of time

C                        G
Another sunrise with my sad captains
C                            G
With who I choose to lose my mind
C                                 G
And if it's so we only pass this way but once
         C                G
