Intro: Em
Em
I got a fresh tattoo of a broken heart
You'd think I'd learn by now but I ain't that smart
D Em
I got a pocket full of nothing, head full of lukewarm beer
Em Bm
I just wanted to make myself feel good
D A
Feel like I've been understood
G A D/F# Em
I was wrong, I've been wrong three times this year
Em
I pushed off from shore in this leaky boat
With my only friend, a bottle of whiskey in my coat
D Em
I was going to drown my sorrows, discuss my attitude
Em Bm
I lay down on my back, I started to curse
D A
Insulted every planet in the universe
G A Em
Hey Jupiter, if you're listening, I didn't mean to be that rude
D
Hey la, la, la, hey la, la, la, hey la, la, la,
Em
How hard can it be?
D
Hey la, la, la, hey la, la, la, hey la, la, la,
Em
How hard can it be?
Let me tell you now,
G A D/F# Em
I just ran out of whiskey and I'm stranded out at sea
Em
Now as the light begins to fade the sun disappears
I see a siren singing in a sea of tears
D Em
I know it's you, I can tell by your hair
Em Bm
And my pulse begins to quicken as I row through the tide
D A
I want to lay my head down at your side
G A D/F# Em
Then you slip into the sea, you're gone, that ain't fair
Em
The sea was as black as a pirate's soul
A black velvet bag, a big dark hole
D Em
Just reflections of the mocking moon above
Em Bm
Then a shooting star shot across the skies
D A
It was then I began to realize
G A Em
I would give it all away if I could have your love
(Chorus)
Em
Now I pulled myself together, had a little chat
With my empty bottle and this little cat
D Em
He'd been hiding, he'd been there for a while
Em Bm
Well I told him how I missed you, how you made me feel
D A
And even though that cat wasn't real
G A D/F# Em
It cheered me up and it made me smile
Em
I stood up in that boat and I laughed till I cried
I danced a little two-step with my pride
D Em
Then I thought about jumping in again, I was so alone
Em Bm
Well you know I couldn't do it cause I'm standing here
D A
It may have been the liquor, it may have been the fear
G A Em
Besides how would that cat have got back home?
(Chorus x 2)
