Okkervil River

Tom:A
 
 

G 
Packed and all eyes turned in, no one to see on the key 
                  Em 
No one waving for me just the shoreline receding 
C                               D 
Ticket in my hand and thinking wish I didn't hand it in 

G 
Cause who said sailing is fine? 
                                            Em 
Leaving behind all the faces that I might replace if I tried on that long ride 
C                                 D 
Looking deep inside but I don't want to look so deep inside yet 

G                                Em 
Sit down, sit down on the proud wave bye 
                       C                    D 
There might not be another star, farther on the line 
G                                      Em 
Look out, look out at each town that glides by 
                    C                     D 
And there's another crowd, to drown in crying eyes 

     G                                    Em 
And see how that light you love now just won't shine 
C                                                           
There might just be another star 
                             G     D       
That's high and far in some other sky 

          G                                           
We sing, is that marionette real enough yet to step off of that set 
      Em         
And decide what a dance might mean to it 
C                              D 
Ruining the place where the ensuing may lay escape 
      G 
We packed up all of our bags the ship's deck now sags 
                                     Em                                     
From the weight of our tracks as we pace beneath flags 
                      C                               D 
Black and battered rattling our swords in service of some fated, foreign, war 

        G 
And we sail out on order of him 
    Em                        C 
But we find that the maps he sent to us 
                     D 
Don't mention lost coastlines 
          G                                             Em 
Where nothing we've actually seen has been mapped or outlined 
                 C                      G     D 
And we don't recognize the names upon strange signs 
           G                                                Em 
And every night finds us rocking and rolling on waves wild and wide 
              C                                   G   D 
Well we have lost our way, nobody's gonna say it outright 

         G 
Just go la la, la la la la 
Em           C      D    
La la la la, oh oh oh 
         G 
Just go la la, la la la la 
Em           C      D    
La la la la, oh oh oh
