Capo on 1st fret
A E
Standing on the deck I watch my shadow stretch
G D
The sun pours my shadow upon the deck
A E
The waters licking round my ankles now
G D
Well, there ain't no sun shine way way down
A E
I see the sharks in the water like slicks of ink
G D
well, there's one there bigger than a submarine
A E
and as he circles, I look in his eyes
G D
I see Jonah in his belly by the camp fire light
A E
See the albatross up in the windy loft
G D
Gets to beating his wings while he sleeps it off
A E
I hear the jettisoned cries from his dream unkind
G D
Get to whipping my ears like a riding crop
A E
Well, the captain once as able as a fink dandy
G D
Is now laid up in the galley like a dried out mink
A E
He's laying dying of thirst and he says or I think
G D
'We're gonna be alone from here on in'
E
Well you're all my brothers
D
And you have been kind
E D
But what were you expecting to find?
E
Now your eyes turn inwards
Bm
And your countenance turns blank
C
And I'm floating away on a barrel of pain
E
It looks like nothing but the sea and sky remains...
A E
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
G D
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
A E
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
G D
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
A E
A harpoon's shaft is short and wide
G D
A grappling hook is cracked and dry
A E
I said, why don't you get down in the sea
G D
Turn the water red like you wanna be?
A E
Cos if I cry another tear I'll be turned to dust
G D
The sharks won't get me, but they don't feel loss
A E
Keep one eye on the horizon, man, you best not blink!
G D
They're coming fin by fin until the whole boat sinks!
A E
Fin by fin
(Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)
G D
Fin by fin by fin by fin
(Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)
A E
Fin by fin
(Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)
G D
Fin by fin by fin by fin
(Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)
