Introduction:
C F G E
We walked to the sea, just my father 'n' me
Am C F G
And the dogs played around on the sand
C F G E
Winter cold cut the air, hangin' still ev'rywhere
Am C F G
Dressed in gray, did he say hold my hand
C C7 F Em
I said love's easier when it's far away
Dm F G F
We sat 'n watched a distant light
G C Em F G
We're two ships that pass in the night
C Em F G
We both smile and we say it's alright
C Em F E
We're still here, it's just that we're out of sight
Am G F G
Like those ships that pass in the night
C F G E
There's a boat on the line where the sea meets the sky
Am C F G
There's another that rides far behind
C F G E Am
And it seems you and I are like strangers a wide ways apart
C F
As we drift on through time
C C7 F Em
He said it's harder now we're far away
Dm F G F
We only read you when you write
G C Em F G
We're two ships that pass in the night
C Em F G
And we smile when we say it's alright
C Em F E
We're still here, it's just that we're out of sight
Am G F G
Like those ships that pass in the night
C Em F G
We're ships that pass in the night
C Em F G
And we smile when we say it's alright
C Em F E
We're still here, it's just that we're out of sight
Am G F G
Like those ships that pass in the night
C Em F G
We're ships that pass in the night
C Em F G
And we smile when we say it's alright
C Em F E
We're still here, it's just that we're out of sight
