Ships
(I. Hunter)

Intro : G#-C#M7-G#-C#

   G#     C#M7     D#     C7/E
We walked to the sea, just my father and me,
    Fm      G#/Eb    C#M7 C#
and the dogs played around on the sand.
  D# G#      C#M7    D#     C7/E
Winter cold cut the air hangin still everywhere,
      Fm      G#/Eb     C#M7 C#/Eb Eb
dressed in gray, did he say, ?Hold my hand??
G#7                C#    Cm
 I said, ?Love?s easier when it?s far away.?
Bbm              D#
 We sat and watched a distant light.

CHORUS:

C#/Eb Eb B     D#m     E(add2) F#sus
We?re two ships that pass in the night,
     B      D#m     E(add2) F#7sus
we both smile and we say it?s alright.
      B          D#m7     EM7
We?re still here, it?s just that we?re out of sight,
      G#m    F#     EM7 D#m/F# G# C#M7
like those ships that pass in the ni_________ght.


     G#     C#M7      D#       C7/E
There?s a boat on the line, where the sea meets the sky,
     Fm     G#/Eb    C#M7 C#
there?s another that rides far behind.
  D# G#      C#M7    D#     C7/E
and it seems you and I are like strangers, a wide
   Fm     G#/Eb       C#M7 C#/Eb Eb
ways apart as we drift on through time.
G#7                C#    Cm
  He said, its harder now, we?re far away,
Bbm             D#
  We only read you when you write.
(Repeat Chorus Except Last word)
EM7 D#m C#m7 D#m7
Ni ______ght
Em7  A  F     Am7     BbM7 C
We?re just ships that pass in the night,
    Dm7     Am7    BbM7  C
we both smile and we say it?s alright.
    A/C# F          Am7     BbM7  C
We?re still here, it?s just that we?re out of sight,
   A  Dm     C      BbM7 C#M7
Like those ships that pass in the night.
