[Chorus]
D A
My name is Donald Crowhurst, I'm alive and well
F#m E
I lost radio signal in pacific swells
D A
I've seen 30 foot waves, a blue whale
F#m E
I saw the end of the world open up its sails
D A
Got lost in the summer of '69
F#m E
I led you all to believe that I was doing fine
D A
This isn't the way I wanted it to end
F#m E
I went to see the globe in gold and vivid red
[Instrumental]
D A F#m E
[Verse 1]
D F#m
What have I got myself into?
A E
Why'd it turn out this way?
D F#m
I hitched my bets on something bigger:
A E
To climb the Everest of waves
D F#m
I knew exactly what I wanted to find
A E
And I fear I've been deceived
D F#m
It wasn't in the plan to lie to you all
A E
But become the first king of the sea
[Chorus]

D A F#m E
[Verse 2]
D F#m
I might have lost count
A E
But two hundred and forty three days I've found that
D F#m
I've been aimlessly drifting apart
A E
From where should I be and where did I start
D F#m
And why did this end, how is this real
A E
Why is this happening to me?
D F#m
I didn't get an R S V P
A E
When I crowned myself the first king of the sea
[Alternate Chorus]
D A
My name is Donald Crowhurst, this might be it
F#m E
I never even left the Atlantic
D A
I've been lying for months, I've been struggling to cope
F#m E
I saw the end of the world, and I think I broke
D A
I got lost in the summer of '69
F#m E
I led you all to believe that I was doing fine
D A
This isn't the way I wanted it to end

I went to see the globe in gold and vivid reds
