Intro:  G  B7  C  G

G                    B7
Sailed on a ship of paper
       C                       G
And I sank in the deep of your eyes
G                       B7
I got lost in your graveyard
       C                  G
Now I dream on a bed of knives


G                        B7
I found the map to your maps
C                       G
I lost the shores for you
G                   B7
But I'll never get back
             C                  G
Cause I'm a ghost ship on the blue

Bm               C
Now I hold my poems
Bm               C
For ladies unknown
Cm                     G
Until my hands go weak
 Cm       G       Cm
Oh oh   I'll be   Oh oh
G               Em
La la la la la,  La la la la la,
C             Cm      G
A ghost ship on the blue


G           B7
The birds are in the sky
C         G
Land's been gone for days
G       B7
All you left was time
 C      G
To find a solid grave


G   B7
Pirates never loved
C  G
The way that I do
G  B7
You never said enough
 C  G
To keep me next to you


Bm               C
Now I hold my poems
Bm          C
For ladies unknown
Cm             G
Until my hands go weak
 Cm    G    Cm
Oh oh   I'll be   Oh oh
G            Em
La la la la la,  La la la la la,
C      Cm   G
A ghost ship on the blue
