[Cm]
I'm scrubbing these floors while you're [Dm]
gawking And maybe once you tip me and it makes you
town, in this critter
to who you're talking
never guess to who you're talking
Then one night there's a scream in the night And you wonder who could that [Dm] have been
while I'm scrubbing And you say, well, [Cm] what she's got to grin
I'm scrubbing these floors while you're [Dm]
gawking And maybe once you tip me and it makes you
town, in this critter
to who you're talking
never guess to who you're talking
Then one night there's a scream in the night And you wonder who could that [Dm] have been
while I'm scrubbing And you say, well, [Cm] what she's got to grin

_ _ _ _ I'm scrubbing these _ _ _ _ floors while you're [Dm]
gawking And maybe once you tip me and it makes you
feel swell In this crummy southern town, in this critter
hotel But [Cm] you'll never guess to who you're talking
_ No, you'll never guess to who you're talking _ _
_ Then one night there's a scream in the night And you wonder who could that [Dm] have been
_ And you see me kinda grinning while I'm scrubbing And you say, well, [Cm] what she's got to grin
_ Well _ _ _ _ _ I'll tell you _ _ _ _ _ [Fm] There's a ship, _ the [Cm] Black _ Freighter
_ With [Gm] a skull on its mast _ [G] tip Coming in _
_ _ _ There's a [Fm] ship, _ _ the [Cm] Black _ Freighter _ With _ [Gm] a skull on its mast tip
_ [G] _
Coming _ in _ _ _ _ _ Well [Cm] you gentlemen say, hey gal, finishing
floors What's wrong with you?
You earn your keep here And [Dm] you toss me your tips and you look to
the ships But I'm counting your heads as I'm making
the beds Cause [Cm] _
nobody's gonna sleep here tonight _ _ _
_ Nobody's gonna sleep here tonight And then one night there's a scream in the
night And you say, who's that kicking up around?
_ And you [Dm] see me kinda staring out the window And you say, well, [Cm] what's she got to stare
at now? _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Well I'll tell you _ _ _ _ _ _ _
There's [Ab] a ship, _ _ the [Cm] Black _ _ Freighter _ _
_ _ [Gm] Turns around in the harbor
_ _ [G] Shooting _ guns from her bow _ _ _ _ _ There's [Fm] a ship, _ _ _ [Cm] the Black _ _ _ Freighter
_ _ [Gm] _ Turns _ around in the harbor _ [G] _
Shooting _ guns from her bow
_ _ _ _ Well [Cm] you gentlemen can wipe all the smiles off your face
Cause every building in town is a flat one And [Dm] this whole fucking place will be down
to the ground Only this cheap hotel standing up safe and
sound And you [Cm] yell, why do they spare that one?
_ _ Why do they spare that one? _ _ _
All the night through with the noise and to-do
And you wonder, who's that person that lives up there?
And you [Dm] see me stepping out in the morning looking fine with [Cm] a ribbon in my hair _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Well just look at me now _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

_ _ _ [Gm] Runs a flag up its mast head _ [G] And a cheer rings the air _ _ _

[G] _ And a cheer rings the _ air _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Well [Cm] my watch on the deck is a swarming with men coming out from the ghostly freighter
And [Dm] they're moving in the shadows where no one can see
And they're chaining up people and delivering them to me
[Cm] _ Kill them now or kill them later _ _
Kill them now or kill them later
_ _ Noon by the clock and so still at the dock You can hear the foghorn miles [Dm] away _ _
And in the quiet of death I'll _ say _ _ _ [Cm] Right _ now! _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
And _ they pile up the bodies and I'll say
_ _ _ That'll learn you _ _ _ _ _
_ _ And [Fm] the ship, _ _ _ [Cm] the Black _ _ Freighter _ _ _ _ _ _
[Gm] _ _ _ [G] _ Disappears out to sea _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Oh [Fm] the ship, _ _ the _ [Cm] Black _ _ _ Freighter
