[Verse 1]
[A/G]One da[A]y as I was sailing [A/G]on the Car[A]ibbean Sea
I sp[G]ied a little fishing vessel dr[A]ifting aimlessly
[A/G]Her s[A]ails were torn and tattered, [A/G]and her wh[A]eel was spinning free
I t[G]old myself that little boat sure lo[A]oks a lot like me
[A/G] [A]
[Verse 2]
[A/G]As I p[A]ulled along beside her [A/G]and I cl[A]imbed upon her deck
In the s[G]ilence I could feel the hair a-r[A]ising on my neck
And[A/G] I th[A]ought as I walked through the[A/G] empty q[A]uarters down below
That l[G]ost abandoned vessel was the s[A]ister of my soul
[A/G] [A]
[Cborus]
'Cause like a sh[D]ip without a rudder I'm just drifting with the tide
And each d[A]ay I'm drawing cl[G]oser to the br[A]ink
Just a sp[D]eck upon the waters of an ocean deep and wide
I won't [E]even make a ripple when I s[A]ink
[Interlude]
[B] [B/A] [B]
[Verse 3]
[B/A]In the e[B]mptiness my footsteps [B/A]were like [B]echoes in a cave
That s[A]eemed to say there ain't no way to le[B]ave this floating grave
And w[B/A]hen I scr[B]ambled to the deck my s[B/A]hip had v[B]anished like a dream
Leaving n[A]othing but the lonely waves to h[B]ear my silent scream
[B/A] [A]
[Cborus]
'Cause like a sh[E]ip without a rudder I'm just drifting with the tide
And each d[B]ay I'm drawing cl[A]oser to the br[B]ink
Just a sp[E]eck upon the waters of an ocean deep and wide
I won't [F#]even make a ripple when I s[B]ink
B/A A x3
