F  G  Bb  C  x4 


F    G            Bb      C 
Somewhere by the water's edge 
F   G              Bb     C 
I found out what nearby meant 
F     G              Bb      C 
Somewhere off the railroad tracks 
F     G            Bb       C 
I learned how to drink the line 


F                        G 
We threw it all in the train 
                             Bb 
And hit the the pipe in the back 
                      C 
Vanilla lingers from Captain and the name it stays 
F                         G 
The others thought I was sick 
                       Bb 
I stumbled out in the dark 
                      C 
And then I found corruption and it hurt my heart 


F  G  Bb  C  x2 


F    G         Bb         C 
Lady span the seas with grace 
F        G       Bb     C 
And keep us feeling full 
F         G             Bb        C 
The cabins that would house our games 
F      G        Bb    C 
Were quiet when I came 


F                         G 
Let's take a run to the horse 
                            Bb 
And then we'll smoke some tabac 
                    C 
I see a couple of portraits 

And the name it stays 

F                G 
A little island away 
                         Bb 
Is where I gathered my leaves 
                     C 
And then I found corruption 

And the name it stays 

F                        G 
We threw it all in the train 
                             Bb 
And hit the the pipe in the back 
                      C 
Vanilla lingers from Captain 

And the name it stays 

F  G  Bb  C x1 

Bb  C  x4  (move up to the 6th fret and 8th fret barre chords respectively) 

Bb                    C 
Fire and ashes in a wooden place 
           Bb                     C 
Where the boats are for staking claims 
Bb                        C 
Guns and stories for the weak at heart 
        Bb                   C 
And a guitar that you can't play 

      Bb                     C 
The tunes grow old and the dead won't die 
             Bb             C 
We've got marriage on our minds 
    Bb                   C 
I write my name on the cabin wall 
            Bb              C 
And its christened with my lies 

F                        G 
We threw it all in the train 
                             Bb 
And hit the the pipe in the back 
                      C 
Vanilla lingers from Captain and the name it stays 
F                         G 
The others thought I was sick 
                       Bb 
I stumbled out in the dark 
                      C 
And then I found corruption and it hurt my heart 
F                        G 
We threw it all in the train 
                             Bb 
And hit the the pipe in the back 
                      C 
Vanilla lingers from Captain and the name it stays
