Overboard by Jeff Daniels
Overboard
Capo:no capo
Dm F C Bb
Truth lives next to consequence, and comes and goes like winter winds
Dm F C Bb
Blowing ‘cross the straits one night, cold as death and real as sin
Dm F C Bb
And I loved her, and she loved me, bound for what was meant to be
C
But trouble travels silently—
Dm F C Bb Dm F C
There’s a girl in Michigan, up in Lake Superior, who’ll never bother us again
C Bb
Makin’ our lives easier
Dm F C Bb C
With alibis so paper-thin, now that she is over me and over you, and overboard.
Dm F C Bb
Dm F C Bb
Guide me toward that lonely light, it’s your beacon in the night.
Dm F C Bb
Now row us straight back to that shore, with frozen hands and muscles sore.
Dm F C Bb
And my back against your back, we glide along the water, black, both knowing
C
there’s no turning back.
Dm F C Gm Dm F C
There’s a girl in Michigan, up in Lake Superior, who’ll never bother us again
C Gm
Makin’ our lives easier
Dm F C Bb
With alibis so paper-thin, now that she is out of sight and out of mind and
C
overboard.
Gm Bb F C
She was never gonna let us go, had a hold on me and a curse on you.
Gm Bb F
And as she lay there pale on that shore, with her eyes gone black where they once
C
were blue
Gm Bb Gm
She could see me for the first time.
Dm F C Bb
There’s a girl in Michigan, who’s overboard—
Dm F C Bb
Truth moved on from consequence, just when things were making sense.
Dm F C Bb
Her body washed back onto shore, discovered by a neighbor boy.
Dm F C Bb
And now she’s in our lives again, the three of us in shadows.
