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