Lyrics and chords:

Capo 2 Em
Like ships in the night, C
you keep passing me by G
We're just wasting time D
Trying to prove who's right Em C
And if it all goes crashing into the sea, G D
If its just you and me trying to find the light. Em
Like ships in the night letting cannon balls flying, C
Say what you mean and turn to a fight G
And fists fly from my mouth, it turns south, D
you're down the driveway and I'm on the couch Em
Chasing dreams since the violent 5th grade, C
Trying to believe in your silent own way G
Cause we'll be okay, I'm not going away D
like you watching at fourteen as it went down the drain Em
And pops stayed the same, and your moms moved away C
How many of our parents seemed to make it anyway? G
We're just fumbling through the grey, D
Trying find a heart that's not walking away. Em
I turn the lights down low C
Walk these halls alone G D
We can feel so far from so close Em
Like ships in the night, C
you keep passing me by G
We're just wasting time D
Trying to prove who's right Em C
And if it all goes crashing into the sea, G D
If its just you and me trying to find the light. Em
Like ships in the night, C
you keep passing me by. G
You keep passing me by, D
like ships in the night. Em
And I'm at the airport waiting on a second plane, C
Had to pack, you had cramps and I was late G
Headed to a red carpet, they won't know my name D
Riding in silence all that we wanna say Em
About to board when you call on the phone C
You said, "I'm sorry I'll be waiting at home." G
Feels like we're learning this out on our own D
Trying to find our way down road we don't know. Em
I turn the lights down low C
Walk these halls alone G D
We can feel so far from so close Em
Like ships in the night, C
you keep passing me by G
We're just wasting time D
Trying to prove who's right Em C
And if it all goes crashing into the sea, G D
If its just you and me trying to find the light. Em
Like ships in the night, C
you keep passing me by. G
You keep passing me by, D
like ships in the night.

Em C G D And I'm gonna find my way back to your side
Em C G D
And I'm gonna find my way back to your side Em
Like ships in the night, C
you keep passing me by G
We're just wasting time D
Trying to prove who's right Em C
And if it all goes crashing into the sea, G D
If its just you and me trying to find the light. Em
Like ships in the night, C
you keep passing me by. G
You keep passing me by, D
like ships in the night.
