[Bb] Standing on the deck I watch my [Fm] shadows stretch
[Ab] The sun pours my shadow [Eb] upon the deck
[Bb] The water's licking round my [Fm] ankles
And now, [Ab] with the rain no sun's shining [Eb] way, way down
I [Bb] see the sharks in the water like [Fm] slicks of ink
[Ab] With his wand they're bigger than a [Eb] submarine
[Bb] And as he circles [Fm] I look in his eyes
I [Ab] see Jonah in his belly by the [Eb] campfire
I [Bb] see the albatross up in the [Fm] windy law
[Ab] Get to beating his wings while [Eb] he sleeps it off
[Bb] I hear the jettison cries from his [Fm] dream on Kite
[Cm] [Ab] Get to whipping my ears like a [Eb] riding cry
[Bb] The captain once was able as a fiend [Fm] and he
[Gm] [Ab] Is now laid up in the galley like a [Eb] dried out minge
[Bb] He's laying dying of thirst and he [Fm] says the right [Gm] thing
[Ab] We're gonna be alone from [Eb] here on in
[Fm] Well you're all my brothers and you [Eb] have been kind
[Fm] But what were you expecting [Eb] to find?
[Ab] Now your eyes turn inwards and you're counting [Cm] in sterns blind
[Db] And floating away on a barrel of pine
It looks like nothing but the sea and the sky [Fm] remains
[Bb] Na na na na na na [Fm] na na na
[Ab] Na na na na na [Eb] na na na
Na [Bb] na na na na na na [Fm] na
[Gm] Na [Ab] na na na na na [Eb] na na
A harp and shaft is [Fm] short and wide
[Ab] A grappling [Eb] hook's cracked and dry
[Bb] I said why don't you get down [Fm] in the sea
[Cm] Turn [Ab] the water red like [Eb] you wanna be
Cause [Bb] if I cry another tear I'll be [Fm] turned to [Gm] dust
[Ab] The sharks won't get me but they [Eb] don't feel lost
[Bb] Keep one eye on the horizon man [Fm] you best not bling
[Gm] They're [Ab] coming fin by fin into the whole [Eb] boat's [Bb] sails
Fin by [Fm] [Gm] fin
[Ab] Fin by fin by [Eb] fin by [Bb] fin
Fin [Fm] by [Gm] fin
[Ab] Fin by fin by [Eb] fin by fin
