INTRO
C minorCm   Cm/Eb Cm/D
C minorCm   Cm/Eb Cm/D

C minorCm
We were only doing what the captain said
  Cm/Eb         Cm/D
We all went down with the ship
  C minorCm
The Crow's Nest splintered on the figurehead
  Cm/Eb         Cm/D
We all went down with the ship

  C majorC
The kamikaze pilots and the virgin assassins
   Cm/Eb         Cm/D
Were told they would reach paradise
C majorC
Down is an army with following orders
  Cm/Eb          Cm/D
Can see it in these zealous eyes

   C minorCm
They pulled out the monsters lie deep in the mind
  Cm/Eb         Cm/D
We all went down with the ship
  C minorCm
The bayonets rusted on the firing line
  Cm/Eb         Cm/D
We all went down with the ship

 C majorC
I heard of all the men who were sent to the trenches
  Cm/Eb          Cm/D
And those with the unmarked graves
C majorC
Horrors of the British in the Boer War
 Cm/Eb        Cm/D
A augmentedA Charge of the Light Brigade

Fm6Fm6            C minorCm
 And it's a long long way down
    G/DG/D
To the bed of the sea
Fm6Fm6          C minorCm
 Oh I will sink until she
  Bb7Bb7
She covers me

Eb MajorEb
 We'll suffer for another man's falling
Bb majorBb        G/BG/B      C minorCm
 Blindsided by an ego that can't stop
                   AbAb
We sink to the bottom to rise to the top and say
Eb MajorEb
 We all fall under the spell of the charmer
Bb majorBb            G/BG/B       C minorCm
 Devil's tongue from the shepherd to his flock
                   AbAb     Abm6/B
We sink to the bottom to rise to the top and say

C minorCm  Cm/Eb Cm/D
C minorCm  Cm/Eb Cm/D

C minorCm
We were only taking what the general desired
  Cm/Eb         Cm/D
We all went down with the ship
C minorCm
For the good and the evil and the noble empire
  Cm/Eb         Cm/D
We all went down with the ship

    C majorC
And the gentle persuasion of the master's hand
Cm/Eb           Cm/D
Shadowed in the ark of his rule
   C majorC
This history lesson takes a measure of sand
     Cm/Eb           Cm/D
As as it twists and distorts every truth

Fm6Fm6            C minorCm
 And it's a long long way down
    G/DG/D
To the bed of the sea
Fm6Fm6          C minorCm
 Oh I will sink until she
  Bb7Bb7
She covers me

Eb MajorEb
 We'll suffer for another man's falling
Bb majorBb        G/BG/B      C minorCm
 Blindsided by an ego that can't stop
                   AbAb
We sink to the bottom to rise to the top and say
Eb MajorEb
 We all fall under the spell of the charmer
Bb majorBb            G/BG/B       C minorCm
 Devil's tongue from the shepherd to his flock
                   AbAb     Abm6/B
We sink to the bottom to rise to the top and say
