[Verse]
E E
I found a book in a washed up ship
E F#m B
Reading the notes the captain stitched
A E A B
Inside this suit of dust I wait
C#m A E E B B E
As the waves carry me back to shore
[Riff]
[Verse]
E E
My neighbor Miss Lorraine commands
E F#m B
The town's attention when she wants
A E A B C#m
She has a way of making everyone she meets
A E E B B E
Feel lost and lone with no direction home
[Bridge]
A E C#m
There's a bad accident on the interstate
G#m B B
A snake of engine oil reaches out
[Riff]
[Verse]
E E F#m B A E
The fire inside my soul
A B C#m
is nearly flickered out
A E B B E
So I order another one
[Chorus]
A B E E
Sliding into the sea
A B E E
With cynicism and rum
A B E E
Watching Miss Lorraine
F#m A G#m B E
[Outro]
