VERSE:
Cm                  
I am standing here today 
 G              
Without a dollar to my name
      Cm                         
I’ve paid my dues, I’ve jumped my claim
 G                  Cm
I’m a child of the wind.



VERSE:
    Cm                 
Yes, I have sailed, and I have sunk
      G
I’ve died of thirst, and I’ve been drunk
Cm                              
Everything I own is packed into a trunk
 G                        Cm
It’s at the bottom of the ocean 


CHORUS:
               G               Cm      Eb
Oh yeah, the ships go in, the ships go out
     G                     Cm
The tide rolls in, and my days run out
G            Cm      Eb       
Everyday I’m on the watch 
         Ab     G
For the boat I lost
    Fm   G     Cm
I’m all washed up



VERSE:
    Cm                   
Yes, I have walked down foreign streets
G
I have heard secrets that I didn’t keep
   Cm                    
I once loved a girl, she was so sweet
 G                        Cm
She rotted out all of my teeth


CHORUS:
               G               Cm      Eb
Oh yeah, the ships go in, the ships go out
     G                     Cm
The tide rolls in, and my days run out
G            Cm      Eb       
Everyday I’m on the watch 
         Ab     G
For the boat I lost
    Fm   G     Cm
I’m all washed up


BDA K:
     F            Cm  
It’s easy to get home 
G             Cm
Under a tail wind
    Bb    Eb       Bb        Eb
But even when your anchor’s dropped
      Bb      Eb              Bb      Ab
Your seasons stopped, you're timbers dropped
            G         Cm
And you’re all washed up.

VERSE:
      Cm                   
Yes, I’ve been baked, and I’ve been burned
 G                    
I’ve been loved, and I’ve been spurned
 Cm                      
I’ve forgotten more than I have ever learned
 G                      Cm
It’s at the bottom of a bottle 


CHORUS:
               G               Cm      Eb
Oh yeah, the ships go in, the ships go out
     G                     Cm
The tide rolls in, and my days run out
G            Cm      Eb       
Everyday I’m on the watch 
         Ab     G
For the boat I lost
    Fm   G     Cm
I’m all washed up
           Fm   G     Cm
Oh yes I’m all washed up
           Fm   G     Cm
Oh yes I’m all washed up
