[Verse 1]
         B                    E         B
It isn't safe out here; it's perfectly clear
            E            B      F#
I should've known it was a big mistake
         B                     E         B
I could've stayed at home, not answered the phone
            E            B      F#
And never given you my heart to break

[Chorus]
    E
But lovers run to ruin
B
Soldiers run to war
Eb
Ships are safe in harbor
      G#m
But it ain't what ships are for
E
Hearts are made for breaking
B
You were made for me
Eb
So batten down the hatches, honey
E
Sail away to sea

[Verse 2]
         B                    E         B
We had a lot to learn and courage to burn
            E            B      F#
We were the cutest little fools in town
         B                    E         B
I was an awful mess, but you were the best
            E            B      F#
And I was trying not to let you down

[Chorus]
E
Lovers run to ruin
B
Soldiers run to war
Eb
Ships are safe in harbor
G#m
But that ain't what ships are for
E
Love is for the making
B
And you were made for me
Eb
So batten down the hatches, honey
E            B
Sail away to sea
 

[Bridge]
      G#m    E
It can seem insane
    E           B
The wind and the rain
E                   B           F#
Howling through the dark of the night
               G#m    E
But when the stars come out
     E         B
The darkest of doubts
    E            B             F#
Is nothing to the joy of their light

[Verse 3]
         B                     E         B
It isn't safe out there, and you're getting scared
            E            B      F#
And, honey, you got every right to be
         B                    E         B
But the time is now, so steady the prow
       E            B      F#
And go ahead into the mystery

[Chorus]
E
But lovers run to ruin
B
Soldiers run to war
Eb
Ships are safe in harbor
G#m
But it ain't what ships are for
E
Hearts are made for breaking
B
You were made for me
Eb
So batten down the hatches, honey
E             B
Sail away to sea
