Well I don�t [B] have as many friends because
I�m [F#] not as pretty as I was
I�ve [G#m] kicked myself at times because I�ve [E] lied
So I will [B] have to learn to stand my ground
I�ll [F#] tell �em I won�t be around
I�ll [G#m] move on over to your town and [E] hide

And you be the [B] Captain and I�ll be [F#] no-one
And you can [G#m] carry me away if you [E] want to
And you can lay [B] low just like your [F#] father and if
I [G#m] tread upon your feet you just [E] say so

[CHORUS]
�cos you�re the [B] Captain ,I am no one
I tend to [F#] feel as though I owe one to [E] you

Well I have [B] handed all my efforts in
I [F#] searched here for my second wind
Is there [G#m] somewhere here to let me in I [E] asked
So I [B] slammed the doors they slammed at me
I [F#] found the place I�m meant to be
I [G#m] figured out my destiny at [E] last

CHORUS

[F#] Did I [E] forget to thank you [F#] for the [B] ride
I [F#] hadn�t [B] tried I tend to [F#] run away and [E] hide

CHORUS
And you be the [B] Captain
And I am no [F#] one
And I [E] owe one to [B] you
