[Intro]
Em G C Bm x4

[Verse 1]
Em                 G                        C         Bm
On waves of love my heart is breaking
Em                         G
And stranger still my self-control
Am                  D
I can't rely on anymore
Em              G                                C         Bm
New tides surprise my world it's changing
Em                         G
Within this frame an ocean swells
Am                       D
Behind this smile I know it well

[Interlude]
Am Asus2 Am

[Verse 2]
Em              G                        C       Bm
Beneath a lover's moon I'm waiting
Em                   G
I am the pilot of the storm
Am                        D
Adrift in pleasure I may drown
Em              G                  C      Bm
I built this ship it is my making
Em                       G
And furthermore my self-control
Am                  D
I can't rely on anymore

[Chorus]
Am       G D   Am      G D
I know why I know why
G             Em            D
Crazy on a ship of fools
Cadd9                    G
Crazy on a ship of fools
Em                   G
Turn this boat around
Em                       G
Back to my loving ground
C          Bm
Oh no oh no

[Interlude]
Em G C Bm

[Verse 3]
Em                      G                   C     Bm
Who claims that no man is an island
Em                         G
While I land up in jeopardy
Am                             D
More distant from you by degrees
Em             G            C         Bm
I walk this shore in isolation
Em                    G
And at my feet eternity
Am                           D
Draws ever sweeter plans for me

[Chorus]
Am       G D   Am      G D
I know why I know why
G             Em            D
Crazy on a ship of fools
Cadd9                          G
Oh Crazy on a ship of fools
Em                   G
Turn this boat around

Oh no oh no ship of fools

Crazy on a ship of fools

Turn this boat around
