May It Last (CHORDS) by The Avett Brothers

[Intro: ~B]

[Chorus]~
           ~B               ~E
There is a sea, and I am a captain

~E               ~B                    ~E
Of something unknown, waves high as mountains

~E              ~B                 ~E
There is a key, and there is a light

~E                      ~B              
Here's to times that I catch it

~B                     ~E
May it last through the night


[Verse]~
~Am                    ~E   ~Am
I'm as low as they come

~Am                       ~E    ~Am
I'm what shouldn't be done

~Am          ~E
Filthy and lost

~E                 ~F#  ~A
Still up for trying


~A                       ~E   ~Am
You're the one reason why

~Am                ~E   ~Am
I look up and smile

~Am        ~E  
Wishing for love

                 ~F#m         ~F
And I'm ready to forge ahead


[Chorus]~
           ~B               ~E
There is a sea, and I am a captain

~E               ~B                    ~E
Of something unknown, waves high as mountains

~E              ~B                 ~E
There is a key, and there is a light

~E                      ~B              
Here's to times that I catch it

~B                     ~E
May it last through the night


[Verse]~
~Am                    ~E   ~Am
Dark thoughts are hidden

~Am                    ~E   ~Am
Masked in the shadows

~Am              ~E
Times they get strange

~E                                   ~F#     ~A
Cause a friend Where all we'll fit in


~A               ~E    ~Am
Blind in our armor

~Am          ~E    ~Am
Traveling fast

~Am             ~E
Judgement is past

~E                     ~F#m  ~F
Now it's time to go home


[Chorus]~
           ~B               ~E
There is a sea, and I am a captain

~E               ~B                    ~E
Of something unknown, waves high as mountains

~E              ~B                 ~E
There is a key, and there is a light

~E                      ~B              
Here's to times that I catch it

~B                     ~E
May it last through the night


[Verse]~
~Am                    ~E    ~Am
When the engine won't turn

~Am                  ~E    ~Am
When the fire won't burn

~Am                  ~E
Like it did when we felt it

~E           ~F#     ~A
Deep in our hearts


~A          ~E    ~Am
Untie the rudder

~Am          ~E    ~Am
Guide them away

~Am        ~E
Take me I'll serve you

~E               ~F#m  ~F
Take me I'll serve


[Chorus]~
           ~B               ~E
There is a sea, and I am a captain

~E               ~B                    ~E
Of something unknown, waves high as mountains

~E              ~B                 ~E
There is a key, and there is a light

~E                      ~B              
Here's to times that I catch it

~B                     ~E
May it last through the night
