VERSE:
 G+G            DmDm
Cold cold ashes on the ground
A minorAm             G+G
 Nothing lost and nothing found
  G+G              DmDm
Friends and loved ones falling down
A minorAm               G+G
 Can`t you hear that mournful sound?

G+G           DmDm
Nothing left but memories
A minorAm               G+G
 Things I still can`t stand to see
G+G            DmDm
There`s an empty spot in me
A minorAm             G+G
 Where my hometown used to be


CHORUS:
 G+G    DmDm       C majorC
This old boat is taking water
       C majorC         G+G
It won`t be long `til it goes down
    DmDm       FF
Had enough to push us over
C majorC             DmDm
 Time to turn the wheel around

G+G  DmDm  A minorAm  G+G
G MajorG  DmDm  A minorAm  G+G

VERSE:
G+G            DmDm
Neighborhoods left to decay
A minorAm            G+G
 People died or walked away
G+G                 DmDm
There`s nowhere left for them to stay
A minorAm              G+G
 And we just look the other way


CHORUS:
 G+G    DmDm       C majorC
This old boat is taking water
       C majorC         G+G
It won`t be long `til it goes down
    DmDm       FF
Had enough to push us over
C majorC             DmDm
 Time to turn the wheel around

VERSE:
G+G                DmDm
Waves keep pounding through the night
A minorAm            G+G
 Lost without a ray of light
G+G           DmDm
Going down without a fight
A minorAm                G+G
Is there still time to make it right?


CHORUS:
 G+G    DmDm       C majorC
This old boat is taking water

 Time to turn the wheel around
