Ships
Recorded by Patty Loveless
Written by Gretchen Peters

G
Eddie had a few days comin'
C
So he took a Las Vegas jaunt
D7
Out to the land of supply and demand
G D7
Where you can get anything you want

G
He wasn't lookin' for true love
C
No he didn't believe in that stuff
D7
Eddie LeGrande was a hard workin' man
G
Who just needed a little good luck

C
His shoes were a little worn
G Em
His hair was a little thin
Am C
Just another old sailor
D7 G
Waitin' on his ship to come in


Lily was a two time loser
C
Who said that love was just a roll of the dice
D7
She acted real tough said once ain't enough
G D7
For me I learned my lesson twice

G
Deep in her heart lived a young girl
C
Dreamin' young girl's dream
D7
And the young girl was who Eddie ran into
G
Over by the slot machines

C
Her face was a little pale
G Em
Her dress was a little thin
Am G
Oh but lookin' at her was like
C D7 G
Watchin' his ship come in


Well he bought her a cup of coffee
C
With the quarters he meant to play
D7
They went for a bite and they talked all night
G D7
Till they said what they needed to say

G
Then they found 'em an all night chapel
C
With a heart shaped honeymoon suite
D7
And somewhere tonight in the neon light
G
Two hearts can't be beat

C
And he's singin' a little song
G Em
She's grinnin' a little grin
Am G
And they're holdin' each other
C D7 G
Watchin' their ship come in

C
Her face was a little pale
G Em
His hair was a little thin
Am G
But they're two young lovers
C D7 G
Watchin' their ship come in

Am G
Just holdin' each other
C D7 G
Watchin’ their ship come in
