Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[F]I h[Am]ave to confess
I've made [Cm]my bed, I'll sleep in it[Dm]
[Am]It's made with compromises
[Eb]I'll toss [Cm]and turn. I'll
twist [Dm]and [Am]shout
Captains of industry
It's time [Cm]to sail the seve[Dm]n seas
[Am]I took the money twice
with [Cm]no regrets[Dm]
But [F5]you [Em]shoul[F5]d thi[Gm]nk twice[F5]
[Em]befo[F5]re you sign[Em][Am]

[Verse 2]
A check, a letterhead, a [Eb]con
tribu[Cm]tion to [Dm]the dead
[Am]To us, the delegates
We spend [Cm]and spend, we see n[Dm]o end
[Am]And when we're shaking hands
[Cm]I'm laughing thinking of t[Dm]he times
[Am]I'll offer bad advice [Eb]and
you still [Cm]listen
You should think [Dm]twice

[Verse 3]
Drinking kerosene [F]and striking
matches with your teeth!
Everybody [Em]gather round to see which
way this goes...
All your life you've [F5]been a sinking ship.
[Em]It's time to [F]make you rise
To make your [F5]mind up: sink or swim?
Sinking [Em]ship, oh sinking ship
[F5]You'll get away with it until they see
[Em]which way the cur[F]rents [Dm]drift
So don't come back again, we've

[Verse 4]
already seen the story's end
[Dm]Look for an answer at the edge of the world
I have to confess
I've made my [Cm]bed, I'll sleep in it
It's made with [Eb]compromises
I'll toss and turn. I'll twist and shout
Captains of industry
It's [F]time to sail the seven seas
I took the [Gm]money [Cm]twice with no
re[Dm]grets
But you should think twice before
you sign

[Verse 5]
A check, a letterhead, a contribution [Dm]to
the [Cm]dead
To us, the delegates
We spend and spend, we see no [Gm]end
And when we're shaking [Eb]hands
I'm laughing thinking of the times
I'll offer bad advice and you still listen
You should think twice

[Verse 6]
Drinking kerosene [F]and striking
matches with your teeth!
Everybody gather round to see which
[Gm]way this [Dm]goes...
All your life you've been a [Cm]sinking ship.
[Eb]It's time to make you rise
To make your mind up: sink or swim?
Sinking ship, oh sinking ship
You'll get away [F]with it until they see

[Interlude 1]
which way the currents drift
[Dm][Cm]

[Verse 7]
[Eb]So don't come back again,
[F]we've already seen the story's end
[Cm]

[Verse 8]
Look for an answer at the
edge of the world
Red eye, red eye, red eye
Good[Dm]night
Goodnight
[Cm]
