Come sail your ships around me
-5-5-555-4
And burn your bridges down
666666444
We make a little history, baby
-5-5-5-555-4
Every time you come around 


6666444
Come loose your dogs upon me
-5-5-555-4
And let your hair hang down
666666444
You are a little mystery to me
-5-5-5-555-4
Every time you come around 


-6-6-6-666-6-66
We talk about it all night long
-6-6-6-6-6-66
We define our moral ground
88888877
But when I crawl into your arms
8777788-8
Everything comes tumbling down 



6666445
Come sail your ships around me
-5-5-555-4
And burn your bridges down
666666445
We make a little history, baby
-5-5-5-555-4
Every time you come around 



6-6-6-66-6-66
Your face has fallen sad now
66-66-6-66
For you know the time is nigh
88888877
When I must remove your wings
7877    7788-8
And you, you must try to fly 



6666445
Come sail your ships around me
-5-5-555-4
And burn your bridges down
666666444
We make a little history, baby
-5-5-5-555-4
Every time you come around 


6666445
Come loose your dogs upon me
-5-5-555-4
And let your hair hang down
666666444
You are a little mystery to me
