Chords for Mat Kearney "Ships In The Night" - Pandora Whiteboard Sessions

Happy Friday.
It's another whiteboard session at Pandora, which is a great way to end the week.
Please welcome Matt Carney. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ How _ [E] _ _ [D] about my friend Nathan?
_ This _ _ [A] _ _
[E] _ _ will be a well-documented song. _ _
_ _ _ But it is my pleasure to be here.
Thank you so much for coming out.
_ _ _ _ [D] This song I wrote is on my new record, Young [C] Love, which has been really exciting and got
to play some [F#] amazing shows and the touring thing keeps growing.
It was cool to see the numbers
relate to [G#] the markets that I've done well [A#] in.
And some [G] surprising songs, which I always wondered I
would play it live and [F#] everybody would cheer really loud and then I wouldn't play it for
six months and then [Gm] it'd show up as like really popular songs.
[E] _ Someone needs to send [G] me more
emails from you guys, [F#] you know, how to [D] pick my set list better.
_ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [A] This one was [E] on there, so. _
_ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ [F#m] Like ships in the night, let the cannonballs fly, [D] say what you mean and it turns to a fight,
[A] fish fly from my mouth as it turns south.
[E] You're down the driveway, I'm on the couch,
[F#m] chasing your dreams since a violent fifth grade, [D] trying to believe in your silent own way.
School [A] be okay, not going away, watched [E] at 14 as it went down the drain.
[F#m] Pops did the same and your mom's moved away.
How many [D] of our parents seem to make it anyway?
[A] Just crumbling through the gray, trying to find a heart that's not walking away.
Turn [F#m] the lights down low, walk [D] these halls alone, [A] we can feel so far from [E] so close.
Like ships [F#m] in the night, we keep [D] passing me by, just [A] wasting time.
_ Try [E] to go through the sky, and [F#m] you'll be almost crashing [D] into the sea.
It's just [A] you and me, trying [E] to find the light.
Like ships [F#m] in the night, we keep [D] passing me by, passing [A] me by.
Like [E] ships in the night,
_ [F#m] I'm at the airport waiting on the second [D] plane at the back.
You at Crips and I was late, [E] and it's you in that car but they won't know my name.
Riding in silence, all that we want to say [F#m] about is forward when you call on the phone.
[D] You saying sorry I'll be waiting at home, feels [A] like burning us out on our own.
Trying [E] to find a way down a road we don't know.
Turn [F#m] the lights down low, [D] walk these halls alone, [A] we can feel so far from [E] so close.
[F#m] Like ships in the night, we keep [D] passing me by, just [A] wasting time. _
[E] Try to go through the sky, and [F#m] you'll be almost crashing [D] into the sea.
It's [A] just you and me, trying [E] to find the light.
Like ships [F#m] in the night, _ [D] we keep passing me by, [A] passing me by.
Like ships [E] in the night, _ [F#m] _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ [G#m] _ _ _ _ [F#m] and I'm gonna find my way [D] back to your [A] side.
Oh, oh, oh, _ [G#m] _ [F#m] like ships in the night, we keep passing [D] me by, [A] just wasting time. _
Try [E] to go through the sky, and you'll [F#m] be almost crashing [D] into the sea.
It's just [A] you and me, trying [E] to find the light.
My ship's [F#m] in the night
Passing [D] me by, [A] passing me by
My ship's [E] in the night
