As I sit at this bar and drink it over thoughts of you keep running through my mind
|
So I build myself a ship inside this bottle sail away leave all my blues behind
|
Ship in the bottle don't you fail me I'm drowning in my sorrow can't you see
|
Ship in the bottle please sail me where that rising tide of hurt can't get to me
|
[ dobro ]
|
I board my ship and sail all through my bottle
|
My friends say it's through water on my brain
|
But I'm in high spirits even though they're liquid
|
I've finally found the way to ease my pain
|
Ship in the bottle please sail me I'm drowning in my sorrow can't you see
|
Ship in the bottle don't you fail me keep that rising tide of hurt away from me
|
Keep that rising tide of hurt away from me
