I Got High Chords

(ver. 1)
Owen
[Intro]
D Dmaj9 Em11/D (x4)

[Verse 1]
D          Dmaj9
I got high
                  Em11/D
With an art teacher of mine
D
I learned how to paint
Dmaj9                         Em11/D
Portraits and landscapes with perspective

[Verse 2]
D
But I've been sitting here
                   Dmaj9
The better part of eighteen years
                  Em11/D
Blank stare blank canvas
D                Dmaj9
In need of a new view
            Em11/D            D  D
Of some new scenery to render

[Chorus 1]
          Gmaj7 D*
There's a boat  leaving
         Gmaj7
Where it goes
N.C.
I don't know

[Verse 3]
D Dmaj9 Em11/D
D Dmaj9 Em11/D
                 D
I've been buried alive
Dmaj9                          Em11/D
      My history teacher by my side
       D
Lest I forget those mistakes
Dmaj9                    Em11/D
That better men have made
                            D
The battles fought and lost
Dmaj9                         Em11/D
      Small victories at what cost?
    D
The curriculum is dated
   Dmaj9
My inspiration fading
Em11/D                    D  D
       A slow setting sun

[Chorus 2]
          Gmaj7  D*
There's a boat   leaving
         Gmaj7
Where it goes
              D*
Well, I don't know
          Gmaj7
But if it floats
    Dmaj7  D/A
I'm get  - ting on
Gmaj7
      With or without you

[Bridge]
D D6 Gmaj9
D D6 Gmaj9
D                D6            Gmaj9
   The winds are strong enough
D                          D6      Gmaj9
   Our native tongues will fail us
Dmaj9   Gmaj9            Dmaj9  Gmaj9
Oh, the pleasure I would take
   Dmaj9    Gmaj9             D*
In renaming       everything

[Chorus 3]
Gmaj7 D*
          Gmaj7 D*
There are boats leaving
           Gmaj7
Where they go
        D*
I don't know
           Gmaj7
But it's a chance
       Dmaj7  D/A   Gmaj7
To see some - thing new
Dmaj7 D/A          Gmaj7
          Will you come with me?

[Outro]
Dmaj7 D/A Gmaj7
Dmaj7 D/A Gmaj7
Dmaj7 D/A Gmaj7
