Tell me quick, sit on me feet
[F] What's this all have to do with me?
[Cm] I spent all my [Eb] time at sea, [Bb] alone
Is there something else I should know?
[F] Something hidden down below
[Cm] The level of [Eb] your
[Bb] conversation
Well, [Gm] it turned away
[Cm] Before [F] the answer
Though [Gm] I yelled aloud
[Cm] He refused [F] to hear
It became [Bb] too clear
[Eb] So [Bb]
it went as we put out
[F] I was left in constant doubt
[Cm] Everything [Eb] I asked about [Bb] seemed private
The captain strolled the bridge one night
[F] I stopped him in the evening light
[Cm] To ask him would it [Eb] be alright [Bb] to join him
Well, [Gm] he stood there [Cm]
like [F] some idol
And [Gm] he listened [Cm] like [F] some temple
And then he turned [Bb] away
[Eb]
[Bb]
All along the faithful coast
[F] We moved silent like a ghost
[Cm] A timeless sea [Eb] of tireless hopes [Bb] possessed us
The wind came building from the cold northwest
[F] And soon the waves began to crest
[Cm] Crashing across [Eb] the forward deck
All [Bb] hands lost
[Gm] I alone [Cm]
survived [F] the sinking
[Gm] I alone [Cm]
possessed [F] the tubes
On that ship [Bb] of fools
[Eb]
