VERSE:
Am                       F      Dm                 Am
Don’t touch the sleeping pills, they mess with my head
Am            F                 Dm             Am
Dredging of big white sharks, swimming in the bed
Am                  F           Dm          Am
And here comes a killer whale, send me to sleep
Am                   F       Dm            Am
Thrashing the covers off, has me by its teeth

PRE-CHORUS:
    C       Dm              Am                  F
And ah, my love remind me, what was it that I said?
C                          Dm          Am            F
I can’t help but pull the earth around me to make my bed
    C       Dm              Am                F
And ah, my love remind me, what was it that I did?
       C                      Dm                 Am              F
Did I drink too much? Am I losing touch? Did I build a ship to wreck?
CHORUS:
     Am G F Em  Dm Am
To wreck, to wreck
     Am G F       Dm                     Am
To wreck, did I build this ship to wreck?

VERSE:
Am               F          Dm          Am
What’s with the long face? Do you want more?
Am              F           Dm                Am
Thousands of red-eyed mice, scratching at the door
Am              F              Dm                         Am
Don’t let the curtain catch you cause you’ve been here before
Am               F               Dm                  Am
The chair is an island, darling, you can’t touch the floor

PRE-CHORUS:
    C       Dm              Am                  F
And ah, my love remind me, what was it that I said?
C                          Dm          Am            F
I can’t help but pull the earth around me to make my bed
    C       Dm              Am                F
And ah, my love remind me, what was it that I did?
       C                      Dm                 Am              F
Did I drink too much? Am I losing touch? Did I build a ship to wreck?

CHORUS:
     Am G F Em  Dm Am
To wreck, to wreck
     Am G F       Dm                     Am
To wreck, did I build this ship to wreck?

INSTRUMENTAL: Am G F Em Dm Am x2

BRIDGE:
      F       G
Good God, the star, the skies
        Am    F
We are lost, into the breach we got tossed
          G                 Am
And the world is coming in fast

PRE-CHORUS:
    C       Dm              Am                  F
And ah, my love remind me, what was it that I said?
C                          Dm          Am            F
I can’t help but pull the earth around me to make my bed
    C       Dm              Am                F
And ah, my love remind me, what was it that I did?
       C                      Dm                 Am              F
Did I drink too much? Am I losing touch? Did I build a ship to wreck?

CHORUS:
     Am G F Em  Dm Am
To wreck, to wreck
     Am G F       Dm                     Am
To wreck, did I build this ship to wreck?

CHORUS:
     Am G F Em  Dm Am
To wreck, to wreck
     Am G F       Dm                     Am
To wreck, did I build this ship to wreck?
