[D] [Bb]
[A] [D] [Bb]
[A] [D] Oldy built a ship, Titanic, [G] to sail the [D] ocean blue,
And they thought they had a ship, that [A] the water would never go through.
It [D] was on the maiden trip, [A] [G] when an iceberg hit [D] that ship,
It was sad when [A] that great ship [D] went down.
[G]
[D] It [G] was sad, it was sad, it [D] was sad, mighty sad,
It was sad when that [A] great ship went down.
[D] Husbands [Am] and wives, [G] little children lost [D] their lives,
It was sad when [A] that great ship [D] went down.
Oh, she was far from England, and [G] approaching to [D] the shore,
When the rich refused [A] to associate with the poor,
So they [D] put them down below, [G] where they were [D] first to go.
It was sad when [A] that great ship went [D] down.
[G] [D] As the humble closed their eyes in [G] the darkness of [D] the hold,
The rich upstairs [A] were playing cards for gold,
And [D] they laughed when a sailor said, [G] there's an iceberg close [D] ahead.
It was sad when [A] that great ship [D] went down.
[G] [D] It [G] was sad, [Em] it was [G] sad, [D] mighty sad, mighty sad,
It was sad when that [Bm] great ship [A] went down.
[D]
Husbands and wives, [G] little children lost [D] their lives,
It was sad when [A] that great ship [D] went down.
When the captain heard the news from [G] a sailor up [D] the mast,
He said, steady boys, [A] we'd better not go too fast,
But [D] the company in their greed [G] said we must increase [D] the speed.
It was sad when [Bb] that [A] great ship [D] went down.
[G] Oh, they put the lifeboats out, [A] all [D] the calm and glassy seas,
And [A] the band played a hymn, [D] let my [G] wallows [D]
hardly.
[G] Little children wept and cried as [D] the waves swept over side.
It [E] was sad when that great ship went [A] down.
It [G] was sad, it was sad, [D] mighty sad,
It was sad when that [E] great ship went [A] down.
[D] Husbands and wives, [G] little children lost [D] their lives,
It was sad when that [A] great ship [D] went down.

When a man on board said, [A] women and children first,
It [D] was a night none would forget, [G] even millionaires got [D] wet.
It was sad when [A] that great ship [D] went down.
The moral of this story, [G] as I'm about [D] to tell,
Is that you should treat [A] your brothers really well,
[D] For in the good Lord's eyes you're [G] the same as other [D] guys.
It was sad when [A] that great ship [D] went down.
