D    Bm    G

[Verse 1]
          D                Bm
Well humankind, he draws a line
           G
He draws a noose, parables and truths
       D                             Bm
Do you remember the water, pour over you?
              G
When I jumped in, you jumped in too
        D                          Bm
Now the songs tell me, walk like a man
                 G                 Bm   A
But every time I do, I keep falling down

[Chorus]
      D            A         G
Now I sing with my eyes wide open,
          D             A                G
Because I can’t bear to close them these days
             D            A       G
And I’ve got nothing here left to remind me
                   D    A              G
I’m the wreck of a ship, tossed on the waves
                   A                   D
I’m the wreck of a ship, tossed on the waves

[Instrumental]
Bm    G

[Verse 2]
         D             Bm
I pull a scarf over my head
        G
Pull my heart across the forest
       D                    Bm
Sky of stars leads from the fire
       G
Smokey breath, I wish it was Summer
        D              Bm
Another place, another time,
              G                  D  A
The night was yours and you were mine

[Chorus]
      D            A         G
Now I sing with my eyes wide open,
          D             A                G
Because I can’t bear to close them these days
             D            A       G
And I’ve got nothing here left to remind me
                   D    A              G
I’m the wreck of a ship, tossed on the waves
                   A                   D
I’m the wreck of a ship, tossed on the waves

[Instrumental]
Bm    G

[Verse 3]
        D             Bm
I zip a coat up to my chin
         G
Kill the cold I can’t let in
         D                 Bm
Too many thoughts too many times
           G
Clouds and commets and worlds defined
         D                Bm
Always a home, always the wind
           G                     D A
Always in  love songs, it has to end

[Chorus]
      D            A         G
Now I sing with my eyes wide open,
          D             A                G
Because I can’t bear to close them these days
             D            A       G
And I’ve got nothing here left to remind me
                   D    A              G
I’m the wreck of a ship, tossed on the waves
                   A                   D
I’m the wreck of a ship, tossed on the waves
          D            A         G
And now I sing with my eyes wide open,
          D             A                G
Because I can’t bear to close them these days
             D            A       G
And I’ve got nothing here left to remind me
                   D    A              G
I’m the wreck of a ship, tossed on the waves
N.C
I’m the wreck of a ship,
