"The Ship Song"
by Concrete Blonde
-a Nick Cave cover
Starts out with a G strummed up and then...
[tab]
(SW) Come sail your ships around me and burn your bridges down[/tab]
[tab]
We make a little history baby, everytime you come around[/tab]
[tab]
Come lose your thoughts upon me, and let your hair hang down[/tab]
[tab]
You are a little mystery baby, everytime you call around[/tab]
[tab]
We talk about it all night long[/tab]
(ALL... NIGHT LONG)
[tab]
And we define our moral ground[/tab]
(OH...YEAH...)
[tab]
(*both) But when I crawl into your arms, everything, it comes tumbling down[/tab]
[tab]
Come sail your ships around me, and burn your bridges down[/tab]
[tab]
We make a little history baby, everytime you come around[/tab]
[tab]
(JN) Are your faces falling sad now, for you know the time is night[/tab]
[tab]
Well I must remove your wings, and you, you must try and fly[/tab]
(do the beginning [the chorus] a couple times)
*solo*
(do the beginning [the chorus} some more and play around with it)
(Johnette does some of her cool singing et al.)
