[Em] [Gb]
[G] [A]
[Gb] There's a [F] saucy flashback, it's a packet of fame
She hails from New York and the dreadnought's her name
Bound her way to the westward and where the wild winds do [G] blow
She's [E] a liverpill [Eb] packet, oh Lord let her go
[F] Tear it down, [D]
down, down, [Ab] tear it down
The [B] dreadnought's a-lying in the River Mersey
Awaiting the independence, it's our [E] word to say
Round out this rock like where the wild [N] winds do blow
She's a liverpill packet, oh Lord let her go
Tear it down, down, down, tear it down
[E] Oh, the dreadnought's a-sailing the Atlantic so [Ab] wide
Where the high roaring seas roll along her black [N] side
Her sails tautly set for the Red Cross to sheo
Bound her way to the westward and the dreadnought will go
Tear it down, down, down, tear it down
The dreadnought's arrived in New York once more
To go ashore, shipmates of the girls we adore
With the wives and with sweethearts so many we'll be
We'll drink to the dreadnought wherever we may be
Tear it down, down, down, tear it down
Here's a health to the dreadnought and the whole of the crew
To the bold Captain Samuel and his officers too
You can keep your flash packets while I tail and blacken ball
Oh, the dreadnought's the flyer that can lick a moth
Tear it down, down, down, tear it down
