Kasey Chambers - The Captain
From "The Captain" (2002)
(Kasey Chambers)
Capo: 4th Fret
INTRO: [G] [D] [Em] [C]
Well I don’t [G]have as many friends because I’m [D]not as pretty as I was
I’ve [Em]kicked myself at times because I’ve [C]lied
So I will [G]have to learn to stand my ground
I’ll [D]tell ‘em I won’t be around
I’ll [Em]move on over to your town and [C]hide
CHORUS:
And you be the [G]Captain
And I’ll be [D]no one
And you can [Em]carry me away if you [C]want to
And you can [G]lay low
Just like your [D] father and if
I [Em]tread upon your feet you just [C]say so
‘cos you’re the [G]Captain, I am no one
I tend to [D]feel as though I owe one to [C]you
INTRO
Well I have [G]handed all my efforts in
I [D]searched here for my second wind
Is there [Em]somewhere here to let me in I [C] asked
So I [G]slammed the doors they slammed at me
I [D]found the place I’m meant to be
I [Em]figured out my destiny at [C]last
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
[D]Did I for[C]get to thank you [D] for the [G]ride
I hadn’t [D]tried I tend to [G]run away and [D] hide [C]
CHORUS
‘cos you’re the [G]Captain, I am no one
I tend to [D]feel as though I owe one to [C]you
And you be the [G]Captain
And I am [D]no one
And I [C]owe one to you
