Sinking Ships

Tom: G

    G                             D               Em7
        As you sail on the sea you could never seem to see
            C                                        G
    That all of your dreams could be tossed in the waves
               D                    Em7                C
    And lost in the ocean, sinking in, that sinking feeling
           G                        D                            Em7
    And as your world has stopped its turning, your heart stands still
            C                                G                 D
    Hang- ing by this melody of life that hasn't lost its meaning
    Em7                                     C           G
        And when you're lost as sea I will be your shore


[Chorus]
    G                           D
        So just hold tight, your ship is going down
    Em7                        C
        In the storm of life I won't let you drown
    G                    D
        It'll be alright now if you just hold on
    Em7                   C             G
        So just hold on, rescue has come


[Verse 2]
    G                    D                      Em7                C
        Right where the stars have left you dead in the cold and on your own
           G                    D                       Em7                   C
    But I  see a silver lin- ing appear be- yond the dark and be- yond your fear
              G                     D
    'Cause you were never meant to do this alone
    Em7                                               G
        And when you're lost as sea I will be your shore
        G       D       Em7     C


[Chorus]
    G                           D
        So just hold tight, your ship is going down
    Em7                        C
        In the storm of life I won't let you drown
    G                    D
        It'll be alright now if you just hold on
    Em7                   C
        So just hold on, rescue has come


[Instrumental]
G       D       Em      C


[Bridge]
    Em7                        C
        Through the storm, through the night
    G                        D
        Hold onto hope, I'll be your guide
    Em7                          C
        And when the waves come crashing down
   G                  D               G
        By your side is where I'll stay


[Chorus]
    G                           D
        So just hold tight, your ship is going down
    Em7                        C
        In the storm of life I won't let you drown
    G                    D
        It'll be alright now if you just hold on
    Em7                   C
        So just hold on, rescue has come
    G    D    Em7    C
                                Rescue has come
G       D    Em7    C    G
