14Like ships in the night,
                    D1
15you keep passing me by
                    A2
16We're just wasting time
            E3
17Trying to prove who's right
          F#m4                      D5
18And if it all goes crashing into the sea,
             A6                     E7
19If its just you and me trying to find the light.

21
                   F#m8
22Like ships in the night letting cannon balls flying,
              D9
23Say what you mean and turn to a fight
             A10
24And fists fly from my mouth, it turns south,
               E11
25you're down the driveway and I'm on the couch
         F#m12
26Chasing dreams since the violent 5th grade,
            D13
27Trying to believe in your silent own way
               A14
28Cause we'll be okay, I'm not going away
                         E15
29like you watching at fourteen as it went down the drain
                     F#m16
30And pops stayed the same, and your moms moved away
                 D17
31How many of our parents seemed to make it anyway?
            A18
32We're just fumbling through the grey,
               E19
33Trying find a heart that's not walking away.
34
35
             F#m20
36I turn the lights down low
             D21
37Walk these halls alone
        A22                 E23
38We can feel so far from so close

                   F#m24
41Like ships in the night,
                    D25
42you keep passing me by
                    A26
43We're just wasting time
            E27
44Trying to prove who's right
          F#m28                      D29
45And if it all goes crashing into the sea,
             A30                     E31
46If its just you and me trying to find the light.
                     F#m32
47Like ships in the night,
                      D33

50like ships in the night.

                 F#m36
53And I'm at the airport waiting on a second plane,
        D37
54Had to pack, you had cramps and I was late
             A38
55Headed to a red carpet, they won't know my name
           E39
56Riding in silence all that we wanna say
          F#m40
57G#out to board when you call on the phone
                D41
58You said, "I'm sorry I'll be waiting at home."
                  A42
59Feels like we're learning this out on our own
                   E43
60Trying to find our way down road we don't know.
