[Verse 1]
  C                     G
when will you carry me home
Dm                    F
   like the wounded star in a movie
  C                     G
when will you carry me home
Dm                       F
   take it back to the start when you knew me
C                            G
'cause when you talk to me that way
Dm                           Am
   I'll be a million miles away
C                          G
I guess it's just another day
    F
in love
 
[Chorus]
C                G     Dm
   We're battleships
                F
drifting in our wee river
C         G     Dm
   takin' hits
               F
sinking, it's now or never
C       G     Dm
   overboard...
         F            G        F
drowning in a sea of love and hate
    G         F
but it's too late
 G      F   C
battleship down
 
[Verse 2]
   C                 G
when will you figure it out
   Dm                         F
that you're not always right, little darling
   C                    G
when will you figure it out
   Dm                        F
that it's not worth the fight, little darling
   C                        G
'cause when you can't think what to say
  Dm                   Am
you go and throw it all away
 C                         G      F
I guess it's just another day in love
 
[Chorus]
C    G     Dm
battleships
                F
drifting in our wee river
C    G      Dm
takin' hits
               F
sinking, it's now or never
C        G     Dm         F             G
overboard, drowning in a sea of love and hate
 G          F
but it's too late
G      F     C
battleship down
 
F G C   F G C   F
 
[Bridge]
   Dm        G
but you're too smart
   C         F
and I'm too dumb
  Dm        G
with no heart in the middle
 
[Chorus]
C     G    Dm
battleships
                F
drifting in our wee river
C   G       Dm
takin' hits
              F
sinking, it's now or never
C       G       Dm     F
overboard, falling into the ocean
C       G   Dm       F       G      F         G
ship to shore, drowning in a sea of love and hate
F            G
but it's too late
F            C
battleship down
