[Intro]
D Csus2 D Csus2
[Verse 1]
D Csus2
Years ago a child's brown eyes stared at the mantle piece
D Csus2
And wondered how the ship got in the bottle
D Csus2
When he tried to find the answers, nobody would tell him
D Csus2
And the ship just sat there in the bottle
[Interlude]
D Csus2 D Csus2
[Verse 2]
D Csus2
Yesterday a man's brown eyes stared at the mantle piece
D Csus2
And stared at the ship in the bottle
D Csus2
The corners of his eyes teared when at last he realized
D Csus2
He was sailing on that ship in the bottle
[Chorus]
G Cadd9 D
I'm sailin' on that ship in the bottle with
G Cadd9 G D
No salt upon my pitch, or wind in my sails
G Cadd9 D
And I'm sailing on that ship in the bottle
Cadd9 G D
Could there be a storm brewin' up ahead
Cadd9 G D
Could there be a storm brewin' up ahead
Cadd9 G D
Could there be a storm brewin' up ahead
Cadd9 G D
Could there be a storm brewin' up ahead
[Interlude]
D Csus2 D Csus2
[Verse 3]
D Cadd2
The ship in the bottle never gets to run ashore
D Cadd2
It sits there on the mantle piece like it sat there years before
D Cadd2
No cargo in its hulls, no silver and gold
D Cadd2
No leeward winds ahead my skin, no cannons to reload
[Chorus]
G Cadd9 D
I'm sailin' on that ship in the bottle with
G Cadd9 G D
With no salt upon my pitch, or wind in my sails
G Cadd9 D
And I'm sailing on that ship in the bottle
Cadd9 G D
Could there be a storm brewin' up ahead
Cadd9 G D
Could there be a storm brewin' up ahead
[Interlude]
D Csus2 D Csus2
[Verse 4]
D Cadd2
The ship in the bottle is a reflection of me
D Cadd2
Showin' me all of the things my eyes could never see
D Cadd2
But still I wish and search for strength to set my spirit free
D Cadd2
And take that dream on the mantle piece and sail it on the sea
[Chorus]
G Cadd9 D
Now I'm sailin' on that ship in the bottle with
G Cadd9 G D
With no salt upon my pitch, or wind in my sails
G Cadd9 D
And I'm sailing on that ship in the bottle
Cadd9 G D
Could there be a storm brewin' up ahead
Cadd9 G D
Could there be a storm brewin' up ahead
Cadd9 G D
Could there be a storm brewin' up ahead
Cadd9 G D
Could there be a storm brewin' up ahead
