G+G
Packed and all eyes turned in, no one to see on the key
E minorEm
No one waving for me just the shoreline receding
C majorC D MajorD
Ticket in my hand and thinking wish I didn't hand it in
G+G
Cause who said sailing is fine?
E minorEm
Leaving behind all the faces that I might replace if I tried on that long ride
C majorC D MajorD
Looking deep inside but I don't want to look so deep inside yet
G+G E minorEm
Sit down, sit down on the proud wave bye
C majorC D MajorD
There might not be another star, farther on the line
G+G E minorEm
Look out, look out at each town that glides by
C majorC D MajorD
And there's another crowd, to drown in crying eyes
G+G E minorEm
And see how that light you love now just won't shine
C majorC
There might just be another star
G+G D MajorD
That's high and far in some other sky
G+G
We sing, is that marionette real enough yet to step off of that set
E minorEm
And decide what a dance might mean to it
C majorC D MajorD
Ruining the place where the ensuing may lay escape
G+G
We packed up all of our bags the ship's deck now sags
E minorEm
From the weight of our tracks as we pace beneath flags
C majorC D MajorD
Black and battered rattling our swords in service of some fated, foreign, war
G+G
And we sail out on order of him
E minorEm C majorC
But we find that the maps he sent to us
D MajorD
Don't mention lost coastlines
G+G E minorEm
Where nothing we've actually seen has been mapped or outlined
C majorC G+G D MajorD
And we don't recognize the names upon strange signs
G+G E minorEm
And every night finds us rocking and rolling on waves wild and wide
C majorC G+G D MajorD
Well we have lost our way, nobody's gonna say it outright
G+G
Just go la la, la la la la
E minorEm C majorC D MajorD
La la la la, oh oh oh
G+G
Just go la la, la la la la
E minorEm C majorC D MajorD
La la la la, oh oh oh
