G+G B minorBm
There's a Russian ship out lost at sea in changing Times
E minorEm C majorC D MajorD
And there's a lonely tide that brings to mind the days gone by
G+G B minorBm
And the simple fact that leads me back is that no one cared
E minorEm C majorC D MajorD
There's a Russian ship out lost at sea and I feel scared
C majorC G+G
And look now, look there's another book
B minorBm E minorEm
And look now, there's a story
A minorAm D MajorD
That in Kiev they were tearing down statues
Chorus:
G+G B minorBm
Tzaralena where's our world gone

Mother Russia's out there sinking

That we're better off than what we were
G+G B minorBm
And the Russian ship that's lost at sea is listing fast
E minorEm C majorC D MajorD
'cause the man who tried the changing winds, has burst its mast
G+G B minorBm
As I think about what's left and how it's come to this
E minorEm C majorC D MajorD
And the shame inside 'cause I denied the days I miss
C majorC G+G
And look, now look there's another book

And look now there's a person
A minorAm D MajorD
Says he's Russian and he once defied Lenin
