San Jose was lost at sea along with a Spanish company
Their powder caught under fierce attack, the king never got his emeralds back
They're down, down and drowned, [Ab] down and drowned and [Abm] never found
The royal charter in Doulas Bay, one of two hundred lost that day
Miners' pockets filled with gold, dragged them down to the ocean cold
They're down, [Db] down and drowned, down and drowned and [B] never found
[E] They're down, drowned in the [Abm] depths below, where the sun don't shine and the winds don't blow
When the timbers crack and the [Abm] mainstay fails, we'll all find [Eb] peace trapped within our sails
[Db] Mary Celeste [Ab] was found alone, [Db] the fate of her crew is still unknown
Murder, fraud or acts [Eb] bizarre, no one can say but chances are
They're [Db] down, down and drowned, down [Bbm] and drowned and never [Ab] found
Hail the revenge for their bravery, tried to escape fighting fifty-three
The surrender of her last sixteen crew, couldn't save her boards from the briny [B] blue
They're [Ab] down, down and drowned, down and drowned [Abm] and never found
[E] They're down, [Eb] drowned in the depths below, where [Dbm] the sun don't shine and the winds don't [E] blow
When the timbers [Eb] crack and the mainstay fails, we'll all find peace trapped within [Ebm] our [Bb] sails
[Ab] Pity the crew of Hermione, suffered a cursed mutiny
Their vicious captain caused the brawl, mutineers and victims all
They're down, down and drowned, down and drowned and never found
General Slocum's wheels of wood, caught ablaze like they never should
Floats of cork filled with weights instead [Abm] sent families off to the riverbed
They're [Ab] down, down and drowned, down and drowned and never found
[E] They're down, drowned [Eb] in the depths below, where the sun don't shine [Abm] and the winds don't blow
[E] When the timbers crack [Eb] and the mainstay fails, [Ab] we'll all find peace trapped within our [Eb] sails
[Bb] [Abm] Oh my friends are dead and gone, I'll join them soon
It won't be long, whether lost at sea or far, ashore to the ocean return forevermore
We're down, down and drowned, down and drowned and never found
Down, down and drowned
