A New Shore

[G]As captain of this band of merry sailors I'm a black mark I'm a [Am]failure
So be[D]fore you watch me [G]drown
I'm re[G]linquishing command for something I don't understand,
this man's a[Am]bout to turn his [D]whole life upside [G]down

[D]I set a course for a [G]new shore
[D]It looked the same as the [G]one before
And [Cm]I forgot what I'd been [G]sailing for
And [D]why I thought this time would be different [G]

[G]I do most of this by feel and let go of the wheel the constellations
[Am]Do the navi[D]gation on their [G]own.
Whilst [G]yearning for adventure, dreading censure in absentia
I would [Am]rather be at [D]sea than be a[G]lone

[D]I set a course for a [G]new shore
[D]It looked the same as the [G]one before
And [Cm]I forgot what I'd been [G]sailing for
And [D]why I thought this time would be different [G]

O[G]ff the charts we drew
They said there wasn't [Am]anything but [D]fairy tales [G]
I told them it was you, I told them you were [Am]everything a [D]fairy tale could [Em]be
The boat sails [Am]by
[Em]Oooo-The shore re[Am]mains and so do [Bm]I
I swear this [D]time will be differen[G]t

Instrumental [G] - [Am] - [D] - [G] (x2)

[D]I settled here on a [G]new shore
[D]My lips were blue and my [G]legs were sore
And [Cm]I forget if I was pushed or I jumped [G]overboard
And [D]after all this time, what's the difference? [G]

Oooo-[Bm7]ooooooh [C]Oooo-[A7]aaaahhh
