[Verse 1] (This is the format for all the verses)
D Cadd9 Everybody, listen to me D Cadd9 And return me, my ship D Cadd9 I'm your captain, I'm your captain D Cadd9 Although I'm feeling, mighty sick
[Verse 2]
I've been lost now, days uncounted
And it's been months since, I've seen home
Can you hear me, can you hear me
Or am I, all alone
[Verse 3]
If you return me, to my home port
I will kiss you, mother earth
Take me back now, take me back now
To the port, of my birth
[Bridge]
Dm Bb Dm Bb Am I in my cabin dreaming, or are you really scheming Dm Bb F A A To take my ship away from me Dm Bb Dm Bb You'd better think about it, I just can't live without it Dm Bb F A A So please don't take my ship away from me
Go back to playing the verse riff a few times, then into verses 4 and 5.
[Verse 4]
I can feel the hand, of a stranger
And it's tightening, round my throat
Heaven help me, heaven help me
Take this stranger, from my boat
[Verse 5]
I'm your captain, I'm your captain
Although I'm feeling, mighty sick
Everybody, listen to me
And return me, my ship
[Verse 6]
I'm your captain, yeah yeah yeah yeah
I'm your captain, yeah yeah yeah yeah
I'm your captain, yeah yeah yeah yeah
I'm your captain, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Then play the outro till the end. The outro is very slow and not at all like the verses.
[Outro]
D C I'm getting closer to my home (repeat till end)
