Gordon Lightfoot - A Passing Ship
CAPO: 4th Fret
INTRO:: G C/G G C/G G
VERSE 1::
C/G G
A passing ship, I have found the open ocean
C/G G D
Give me no lip, the waves roll by as I press on
C/G G D
A sunlit sea, on the first day in April
C/G G
How fresh the wind, will you miss me when I'm gone
VERSE 2::
C/G G
How many words, how many songs still unwritten
C/G G D
How many ships of the line have come and gone
C/G G D
In the good old days, may they never be forgotten
C/G G
They had heavy wind or they had no wind at all
INSTRUMENTAL:: G D F C G
VERSE 3::
C/G G
A passing ship, it is midnight on the ocean
C/G G D
Had a real long trip, I have been at sea all winter
C/G G D
When my ship came in, I was giving up the ghost
C/G G
I think I should be leaving those passing ships alone
VERSE 4::
C/G G
When the sea runs high, the sea runs wild and I'm unsteady
C/G G D
And I think of you, in the warmth of your home and family
C/G G D
When love is true, there is no truer occupation
C/G G
And may this gale, blow us to the ones we love
VERSE 5::
C/G G
Another day, another ocean
C/G G D
Give me no lip, but stand aside as I press on
C/G G D
A sunlit sea, on the last day in October
C/G G D
How fresh the wind, will you miss me from now on
C/G G
I guess I should be leaving passing ships alone Last updated:
