May It Last chords

[Intro]
 
B
 
[Chorus]
 
           B               E
There is a sea, and I am a captain
E               B                    E
Of something unknown, waves high as mountains
E              B                 E
There is a key, and there is a light
E                      B
Here's to times that I catch it
B                     E
May it last through the night
 
 
[Verse]
 
Am                    E   Am
I'm as low as they come
Am                       E    Am
I'm what shouldn't be done
Am          E

Filthy and lost
E                 F#  A
Still up for trying
 
A                       E   Am
You're the one reason why
Am                E   Am
I look up and smile
Am        E
Wishing for love
                 F#m         F#
And I'm ready to forge ahead
 
 
[Chorus]
 
           B               E
There is a sea, and I am a captain
E               B                    E
Of something unknown, waves high as mountains
E              B                 E
There is a key, and there is a light
E                      B
Here's to times that I catch it
B                     E
May it last through the night
 
[Verse]
 
Am                    E   Am
Dark thoughts are hidden
Am                    E   Am
Masked in the shadows
Am              E
Times they get strange
E                                   F#     A
Cause a friend Where all we'll fit in
 
A               E    Am
Blind in our armor
Am          E    Am
Traveling fast 
Am             E
Judgement is past
E                     F#m  F#
Now it's time to go home
 
[Chorus]
 
           B               E
There is a sea, and I am a captain
E               B                    E
Of something unknown, waves high as mountains
E              B                 E
There is a key, and there is a light
E                      B
Here's to times that I catch it
B                     E
May it last through the night
 
[Verse]
 
Am                    E    Am
When the engine won't turn
Am                  E    Am
When the fire won't burn
Am                  E
Like it did when we felt it
E           F#     A
Deep in our hearts
 
A          E    Am
Untie the rudder
Am          E    Am
Guide them away
Am        E
Take me I'll serve you
E               F#m  F#
Take me I'll serve
 
[Chorus]
 
           B               E
There is a sea, and I am a captain
E               B                    E
Of something unknown, waves high as mountains
E              B                 E
There is a key, and there is a light
E                      B
Here's to times that I catch it
B                     E
May it last through the night
