Mat Kearney - Ships In The Night (Live on the Honda Stage) chords
Start Jamming...
[A]
Like [F#m] ships in the night
[D] [A] Just wasting time
Trying to prove who's right
And if it all goes
crashing to the sea
It's just you and me
Trying [E] to find the light
[A] [F#m] Like ships in the night, but getting lost by the [D] sea
What you mean in a turnstile fight?
[A] It's black on my mouth, it hurts out
[E] You're down the driveway, I'm on the couch
[A] Chasing your dreams, I'm lying in fifth grade
[D] Trying to believe in your silent home away
Cause [A] it will be okay, I've grown [E] away
You watched it pull the seam as it went down the drain
[F#m] I've stayed the same, but your mom's gone away
[D] Many of our parents seem to make it anyway
[A] You're just fumbling through the gray
You're [E] trying to find a heart, it's not walking away
[F#m] Turn the lights down low
[D] These halls alone
[A] We can feel so far [E] So close
Like [F#m] ships in the night
Keep [D] crossing me by
Just [A] wasting time
Trying to prove who's right
And [F#m] if it all goes
crashing [D] to the sea
It's just [A] you and me
[E] Trying to find a [A] ride
Like ships in the night
[D] You're passing me by
[A] You're passing me by
Like ships in the night
[F#m] I'm at the airport, hanging on the second plane
[D] Had to pack, and he was [A] gramps
And I'm asleep, did a two-hour bed
Carpeting, won't know my name
[E] Riding in silence, all that we wanna say
[F#m] Got spoiled when you call on the phone
[D] You say I'm sorry, I'll be waiting
It [A] feels like we're learning this out on the phone
[E] Trying to find a way down a road we don't know
[A] Turn the lights down [F#m] low
[D] These halls alone
[A] We can feel so far So [Em] close
Like [F#m] ships in the night
Keep [D] crossing me by
[A] Just wasting time
Trying to prove who's right
And if it all [F#m] goes
crashing to the sea
[D] It's just [A] you and me
Trying [E] to find a ride
Like [A] ships in the night
You're passing [D] me by
You're [A] passing me by
Like ships in [E] the night Hey!
[A]

crashing [D] to the sea
It's just [A] you and me
Trying [E] to find a ride
