Ships That Don’t Come In
Joe Diffie
Capo 1
Intro:
G C/G Cm G
G C/G Cm G
Verse 1:
G
I could tell he'd had a tough life
C/G
By the way he sat and stared
C
And me, I'd come to push and shove
G
So I pulled up a chair
G
We talked of roads untraveled
C/G
We talked of love untrue
C
Of strings that come unraveled
G
We were kings and kindred fools
Am
And just when I'd hit bottom
D
That old man raised his glass
Am
And said at least we had our chances
D
There's those who never have
Chorus:
C D
So here's to all the soldiers
G D/F# Em
Who have ever died in vain
Am D
The insane locked up in themselves
G G - Am - G/B - C
The homeless down on Main
C D
To those who stand on empty shores
Bm C C - G/B - Am
And spit against the wind
Am G/B C
And those who wait forever
G
For ships that don't come in
Instrumental:
G C/G Cm G
Verse 2:
G
He said it's only life's illusions
C/G
That bring us to this bar
C
To pick up these old crutches
G
And compare each other's scars
G
'Cuz the things we're calling heartaches
C/G
Hell, they're hardly worth our time
C
We bitch about a dollar
G
When there's those without a dime.
Am
And as he ordered one last round, he said
D C - G/B - Am
I guess we can't complain
Am
God made life a gamble
D
And we're still in the game.
[Repeat Chorus]

Am G/B C
And those who wait forever
