 Verse 1 
 
 
 A/G   A                  A/G       A         
 One day as I was sailing on the Caribbean Sea
     G                             A               
 I spied a little fishing vessel drifting aimlessly
 A/G  A                            A/G       A                    
 Her sails were torn and tattered, and her wheel was spinning free
    G                                  A                
 I told myself that little boat sure looks a lot like me
 
 A/G A 
   
 
 Verse 2 
 
 
 A/G   A                      A/G     A                  
 As I pulled along beside her and I climbed upon her deck
         G                               A               
 In the silence I could feel the hair a-rising on my neck
    A/G  A                            A/G     A                 
 And I thought as I walked through the empty quarters down below
       G                             A               
 That lost abandoned vessel was the sister of my soul
 
 A/G A 
   
 
 Chorus 
 
 
                 D                                                  
 'Cause like a ship without a rudder I'm just drifting with the tide
           A                G             A  
 And each day I'm drawing closer to the brink
          D                                            
 Just a speck upon the waters of an ocean deep and wide
         E                          A  
 I won't even make a ripple when I sink

 Verse 3 
 
 
 B/A     B                     B/A       B               
 In the emptiness my footsteps were like echoes in a cave
       A                                    B                      
 That seemed to say there ain't no way to leave this floating grave
      B/A      B                      B/A      B                   
 And when I scrambled to the deck my ship had vanished like a dream
          A                               B                   
 Leaving nothing but the lonely waves to hear my silent scream
 
 B/A A 
   
 
 Chorus 
 
 
                 E                                                  
 'Cause like a ship without a rudder I'm just drifting with the tide
           B                A             B  
 And each day I'm drawing closer to the brink
          E                                            
 Just a speck upon the waters of an ocean deep and wide
         F#                         B  
 I won't even make a ripple when I sink
