O Captain

Verse 1:
E MajorE              G#G#
How can I get any better this late at night?
C# minorC#m               BB
I laugh all my cares away, a captain driftin’ toward daylight
E MajorE               G#G#
You got me feeling giddy, sand between my toes
C# minorC#m               BB
We’ll just keep wandering looking for what, God only knows

Chorus 1:
A augmentedA            E MajorE
A augmentedA cadillac’s on fire three blocks away
C# minorC#m                BB           E MajorE
I’m filled up with desire and I can’t seem to make it go away

Verse 2:
E MajorE                    G#G#
Washed up on this desert island, a suitcase in my hand
C# minorC#m                   BB
Digging holes to bury treasure, rumbling through the ruined sand
E MajorE                  G#G#
We’re just two old Ex-Believers looking for a sign
C# minorC#m                       BB
I think we’re bastards and blasphemers, justifying our feeble minds

Chorus 2:
A augmentedA                E MajorE
You know my mind’s on fire so don’t look away
C# minorC#m              BB             E MajorE
I’m filled up with desire and only you can make me feel okay

Verse 3:
E MajorE                    G#G#
I’m sending out an S.O.S. baby, someone save my life
C# minorC#m                   BB
Your lovings got me going crazy, throwin my hands up to the sky
E MajorE                  G#G#
The worst part is I loved you dearly so let me give you some advice
C# minorC#m                       BB
The next stray ship that crosses your path, maybe you ought to think twice

Chorus 3:
A augmentedA                    E MajorE
Cos when a lady’s mind’s on fire, you got a choice to make
C# minorC#m               BB                E MajorE
Or she’ll lose all her desire, is that something you’re willing to forsake
