Owl City - Captains and Cruise Ships: chords

G      D        Am
I am stuck in L.A.
             C                   G
Through the week and can't get away
             D            Em
And you're alone on the pier
               C                G
In West Palm Beach on your holiday
        D         Am
Stormy night, reawake
            C                   G
The stomach ache that I've acquired
              D                  Em
From feeling down, things look grim
            C
And I'm so sick of being tired

Chorus:
C          D         C
Apartment lights go dark
             Em           D         C
And it's depressing but what can I do?
                 D          C
The midnight streets feel dead
          Em           D           G
When I am so used to driving with you

Brighter lights fill the nights
And bluer skies reflect in your eyes
As I inspect and analyze
All of these dreams I don't recognize
If you're still up when the ships
in the port prepare to set sail
Comb the beach and put those blue
flowers up in your ponytail

Chorus:
Inside my head your voice is still resounding
But what can I do?
The empty rooms feel cold
When I am so used to being with you

Count the stars, watch the waves,
absorb the summer sun and think of me
When you explore hidden coves and
tiny island chains throughout the sea
Can you still hear my voice
When I'm outside, from over the phone?
For what it's worth, darling dear
I wish you were here, 'cause I feel alone

When you were home, we'd sing
But since you've left I don't hear anything
And though I feel so sad
I can't believe things are really that bad

Old captains and brand new cruise ships
Sailing over the briny sea
When I crashed my beloved desk job
And swim through the debris
I'll cut loose and leave this mad house
Bound for the Atlantic blue
I'll stroll down your tree-lined driveway
And sail the ocean with you
