A Passing Ship
Gordon Lightfoot
G
INTRO:
G C/G G C/G G
VERSE 1:
C/G G A passing ship, I have found the open ocean C/G G D Give me no lip, the waves roll by as I press on C/G G D A sunlit sea, on the first day in April C/G G How fresh the wind, will you miss me when I'm gone
VERSE 2:
C/G G How many words, how many songs still unwritten C/G G D How many ships of the line have come and gone C/G G D In the good old days, may they never be forgotten C/G G They had heavy wind or they had no wind at all
INSTRUMENTAL:
G D F C G
VERSE 3:
C/G G A passing ship, it is midnight on the ocean C/G G D Had a real long trip, I have been at sea all winter C/G G D When my ship came in, I was giving up the ghost C/G G I think I should be leaving those passing ships alone
VERSE 4:
C/G G When the sea runs high, the sea runs wild and I'm unsteady C/G G D And I think of you, in the warmth of your home and family C/G G D When love is true, there is no truer occupation C/G G And may this gale, blow us to the ones we love
VERSE 5:
C/G G Another day, another ocean C/G G D Give me no lip, but stand aside as I press on C/G G D A sunlit sea, on the last day in October C/G G D How fresh the wind, will you miss me from now on C/G G I guess I should be leaving passing ships alone
