I tabbed this from a live recording (link at the bottom of the page) -- Kevin changes it
every so often and adds little licks here and there, but this tab is an accurate
for sure. Enjoy :) -Courtney

C#maj7 D#m
A quieter boat, dog's dying day
Fm F#maj
A bone in a bowl, a watery grave
D#m C#maj7 A#m
See, I am a sailor, but I'm not so great
D#m G#maj F#maj* C#maj
I keep fishin' for roadkill, passin' out on the waves


(repeat chords above)
A shimmering sea, stretched end to end
A shivering bowl, a flickering friend
See, that's Mr. Murphy, my leathery brave
He's whimpering "Taps" now, for his plank-walk parade


Fm* A#m C#maj G#maj D#maj
I've never been a joiner, no, I've quit every team I've been on
F#maj* A#m* F#maj* A#m*
Now I'm crying in my coffee, that's not sea salt in my eyes
F#maj* A#m* F#maj* G#maj C#maj
Cause me and Murphy, we have been through it, and I hate watching him die

(whistling) (repeat the pattern in the verse)

So I wait for my wisdom, like I wait for my wife
Like I wait for a story, helps me wait out the night
Like when I was an archer, but I couldn't shoot straight
I broke all of ma's windows, I poked holes through her drapes

And I laugh to myself, but I can't tell you why
The hung-over sun sneaks back in the sky
But Murphy went peaceful, he went decent and right
At least better than I will, when it's my turn to die

And I wear his collar on my wrist and I bury him down at the beach
No crying, no coffin, just a body in a hole
No praying, no singing, no saving any souls
The only thing I'm saving, yeah
Is a bone... inside... a bowl


(Note: at the end of the outro, Kevin plays F#maj to F#m before ending on C#maj.)
