Oh My Captain(Chords)

	        
Intro:  Am 

verse 1 

Am                     Em 
Oh my captain, Oh my captain 
          F                C 
I've been working hard for you 
          F                C 
Trying to make you love me too 
      F              C         G 
Doing all that I can do for my captain 
      Am                 C 
Oh my captain, open your eyes 
        F            C  
See the rebel on the stairs 
              F            C 
And are there roamers everywhere 
           F                 C            G 
And how it seems that no one cares for my captain 


G7                   C     F 
Tell me now what is going on 
G                         C        F 
  See the ground that I'm standing on 
       Em             F 
How it crumbles at my feet 
      Em               C 
As we dance you remind me 


verse 2 

      Am             Em 
Oh my captain, Oh my captain 
       F              C 
I've remembered every song 
             F                    C 
And now I've learned to sing them all 
        F              C             G    
Still I wonder what is wrong with my captain 
      Am                  C 
Oh my captain, hold on to me 
        F              C  
Tell me why you let me go 
            F                C  
And why the anchor man needs rope 
        F                C           G 
Already half way off the boat for my captain 


G7                  C     F 
Tell me now what is going on 
G                        C      F 
  See the tower that I'm coming from 
       Em                F 
How it shakes beneath my feet 
      Em              C 
As we fall you remind me 



Instrumental: Am Em Esus4 Em Esus4 Bb  F  C  Am  F G 


G7                  C     F 
Tell me now what is going on 
G                      C       F 
See the tower that I'm calling from 
       Em                F 
How it breaks beneath my feet 
      Em             C 
As we fly it reminds me 



Outro 

      Am             C 
Oh my captain, Oh my captain 
         F              C 
Now it's time for me to part 
           F              C 
To rip the needle from my heart 
        F                 C     G     C 
We were so wrong from the start oh my captain
