Intro:  G  B7  C  G  x2

G                     B7
I 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
And i'll never get back
            C                 G
Cause i'm a ghost ship on the blue

Interlude: 
G B7 C G x2
Ba da, da da, da da, da da da da, 
Ba da, da, da, da, da, da

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


The earth is flat and dangerous
I grew out of my iron coat
With a banshee in a tunnel
