D  Bm  Em  A


[Verse 1]
D          Bm          G              A
If, if you choose that we will always lose
              D    Bm           Em    A
Well then I'll sail  this ship alone
    D            Bm           G           A
And if, if you decide to give him another try
               D   Bm           Em    A
Well then I'll sail  this ship alone


[Chorus]
          G                   A
Well they said if I wrote the perfect love song
D                 Bm
You would take me back
       G               Em
Well I wrote it, but I lost it
        A
And now will you take me back anyway now


[Verse 2]
D            Bm        G               A
if, if you insist that this is for the best
              D    Bm           Em    A
Well then I'll sail  this ship alone
    D          Bm         G             A
And if, if you swear that you no longer care
              D    Bm           Em    A
Well then I'll sail  this ship alone


[Bridge]
                     D    D7
I'll sail this ship alone
           G              A
Between the pain and the pleasure
                     D    D7
I'll sail this ship alone
           G               A
Amongst the sharks and the treasure
   G         A      G       A        G       A
If you would rather go your way then go your way
     A N.C.
I'll sail this ship alone

[Verse 3]
D               Bm        G                A
If, if you're afraid that I won't make the grade
              D    Bm           Em    A
Well then I'll sail  this ship alone
    D           Bm      G              A
And if, if you agree to him instead of me
              D    Bm           Em    A
Well then I'll sail  this ship alone


[Chorus]
          G                   A
Well they said if I wrote the perfect letter
     D              Bm
That I would have a chance
       G                 Em
Well I wrote it, and you burned it
        A
And now do I have a chance anyway now


[Verse 4]
D          Bm         G             A
If, if you swear that you no longer care
              D    Bm           Em    A
Well then I'll sail  this ship alone


[Bridge]
                     D    D7
I'll sail this ship alone
           G              A
Between the pain and the pleasure
                     D    D7
I'll sail this ship alone
           G               A
Amongst the sharks and the treasure
   G         A      G       A        G       A
If you would rather go your way then go your way
     A N.C.
I'll sail this ship alone

[Chorus]
          G                 A
Well they said if I burnt myself alive
     D     N.C.
That you'd come running back
