[Verse]
 
                G   CM7 Cadd9 CM7
We sent out the SOS call
         G            CM7 Cadd9
It was a quarter past four
CM7    G
In the morning
         CM7     Cadd9 CM7  Em            A7sus2
When the storm broke    our second anchor line.
G                CM7 Cadd9
  Four months at sea.
CM7  G              CM7
Four months of calm seas
Cadd9 CM7 G              CM7
to    be  pounded in the shallows
Cadd9 CM7 Em           A7sus2 | % | % |
Off   the tip of Montauk Point.
 
G                CM7
  They call them rogues.
    Cadd9 CM7  G          CM7  Cadd9 CM7
They    travel fast and alone,
    G            CM7
One hundred foot faces
   Cadd9 CM7  Em          A7sus2
Of God's good ocean gone wrong
              G          CM7
What they call love is a risk,
       Cadd9 CM7  G          CM7
'Cause you   will always get hit
 Cadd9 CM7 G
Out    of nowhere
        CM7  Cadd9 CM7 Em          A7sus2 | % | % | % |
By some wave and    end up on your own.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
C                 G
  The hole in the hull defied the crews attempts
Em             A7sus2 | % |
  To bail us out.
C                    G
  But it flooded the engines and radio
Em              A7sus2 | % |
  half buried bow.
 
 
[Interlude]
 
| G  | Cmaj7   Cadd9 Cmaj7 |   (x3)
| Em | A7sus2              | % |
 
 
[Verse]
 
     G           CM7   Cadd9 CM7
Your tongue is a rudder.
   G                CM7
It steers the whole ship.
Cadd9 CM7  G               CM7 Cadd9
Sends your words past your lips
  CM7         Em               A7sus2
Or keeps them safe behind your teeth.
        G                CM7
But the wrong words will strand you.
Cadd9 CM7  G                CM7
Come   off course while you sleep.
Cadd9 CM7  G           CM7
Sweep your boat out to sea
   Cadd9  CM7 Em         A7sus2 | % |
Or dashed to bits on the reef.
 
G            CM7
  The vessel groans
    Cadd9 CM7 G            CM7  Cadd9 CM7
The oc - ean pressures its frame.
       G              CM7
To the port I see the lighthouse
  Cadd9 CM7 Em             A7sus2
Through the sleet and the rain.
              G         CM7
And I wish for one more day
           G              CM7  Cadd9 CM7
To give my love and repay debts.
        G                 CM7
But the morning finds our bodies
  Cadd9 CM7  Em           A7sus2 | % | % | % |
Washed    up thirty miles west.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
C                   G
  They say that the captain
                    Em
Stays fast with the ship
                  A7sus2
Through still and storm.
C                       G
  But this ain't the Dakota.
                     Em
And the water is cold.
                             A7sus2 | % | % | % | % | % | % |
We won't have to fight for long.
 
 
[Ending]
 
This is the end.
G
  This story's old
 
But it goes on and on
               CM7
Until we disappear.
 
Calm me and let me taste
 
The salt that you breathed
 
While you were underneath.
G
  I am the one who haunts your dreams
 
Of mountains sunk below the sea.
CM7
  I spoke the words but never
 
Gave a thought to what they all could mean.
Em
  I know that this is what you want.
 
A funeral keeps both of us apart.
A7sus2
  You know that you are not alone.
 
Need you like water in my lungs.
 
G
  This story's old
 
But it goes on and on
               CM7

Calm me and let me taste
 
The salt that you breathed
 
While you were underneath.
G
  I am the one who haunts your dreams
 
Of mountains sunk below the sea.

A7sus2
  You know that you are not alone.
 
Need you like water in my lungs.
            G
This is the end.

Perfect except for one chord. The very last E7 you have should be a Cmaj7 instead.

and also on teh Cmaj7 you should put your ring finger on the 3rd fret of the b string after you hit the chord a couple times in the verses.
