O Captain

E G# How can I get any better this late at night? C#m B I laugh all my cares away, a captain driftin’ toward daylight E G# You got me feeling giddy, sand between my toes C#m B We’ll just keep wandering looking for what, God only knows A E A cadillac’s on fire three blocks away C#m B E I’m filled up with desire and I can’t seem to make it go away E G# Washed up on this desert island, a suitcase in my hand C#m B Digging holes to bury treasure, rumbling through the ruined sand E G# We’re just two old Ex-Believers looking for a sign C#m B I think we’re bastards and blasphemers, justifying our feeble minds A E You know my mind’s on fire so don’t look away C#m B E I’m filled up with desire and only you can make me feel okay E G# I’m sending out an S.O.S. baby, someone save my life C#m B Your lovings got me going crazy, throwin my hands up to the sky E G# The worst part is I loved you dearly so let me give you some advice C#m B The next stray ship that crosses your path, maybe you ought to think twice A E Cos when a lady’s mind’s on fire, you got a choice to make C#m B E Or she’ll lose all her desire, is that something you’re willing to forsake
