The Captain - Kasey Chambers
(intro)
B - F# - g#m - E
B
Well, I don't have as many friends because
F#
I'm not as pretty as I was,
g#m E
I've kicked myself at times because I lied.
B
So I will have to learn to stand my ground,
F#
I tell 'em I won't be around,
g#m E
I move on over to your town and hide.
(chorus)
B
You be the captain,
F#
And I'll be no one,
g#m E
And you can carry me away if you want to,
B
And you can lay low,
F#
Just like your father,
g#m E
And if I tread upon your feet, you just say so,
B
'Cause you're the captain, I am no one,
F# E
I tend to feel as though I owe one to you,
B - F# - g#m - E
To you...
B
Well, I have handed all my efforts in,
F#
Searched here for my second wind,
g#m E
Is there someone here to let me in I asked.
B
So I slammed the doors they slammed at me,
F#
I found the place I'm meant to be,
g#m E
I figured out my destiny at last.
(chorus)
d#m E
Did I forget to thank you
F# B g#m
For the ride? I hadn't tried.
F# E
I tend to run away and hide.
(chorus)
B
'Cause you're the captain, I am no one,
F# E
I tend to feel as though I owe one to you,
B F#
'Cause you're the captain, I am no one,
E B - F# - g#m - E
And I owe one to you.
B - F# - g#m - E
