[Verse 1]
[Em]I we[Am]nt to [D]se[C]e th[G]e captain,[D]
[C]
[C#dim]strangest I could [G]find
Laid my [Bm]proposition [C]down,
[Am]laid it on the line[D]
I won't slay for beg[C]gars'
[G]Lik[Bm]e wise golden Jew[Am]s
[C]But I will slay to [G]learn the way
[D]To sink an [C]ocean of [G]fools
A ship of [D]fools on a [C]cruise [G]here
Ship of [D]fools, sail [C]away from [Em]me
It was later than I thought
[C#dim]When I first believed you
Now I can[Am]not share your [D]laughter
[C]Ship of [G]fools
Saw your first ship [D]sink and drown
[C]From [C#dim]rockin' of the boat[G]
And all [Bm]that could not [C]sink or swim
[Am]Was just left there to f[D]loat
I won't leave you [C]driftin' down
[G]But who[Bm] or when makes me why[Am]
[C]With thirty years [G]upon my head
To [D]have you [C]call me [G]child
A ship of [D]fools on [C]a cruise
[G]A ship of f[D]ools sail a[C]way from m[Em]e
It was later than I thought
[C#dim]When I first believed you
Now I can[Am]not share your laughter
[D]Sha[C]re but through you[G]

[Verse 3]
[Em]It was later than I thought,
[C#dim]when I first believed you
Now I can[Am]not share your [D]love,
[C]ship of [G]fools
The bottles stand so [D]empty [C]here,
[C#dim]as they would've filled before
[G]Time, there was[Bm]n't ple[C]nty of it
[Am]But from that cup, n[D]o more
Though I could not [C]caution,
[G]no I [Bm]still, my one of [Am]you
[C]Don't let your hand to [G]raise no flag
[D]Atop no [C]ship of [G]fools, ship of [D]fools
On a [C]cruise, [G]she said
Ship of [D]fools, sail [C]away from [Em]me
It was later that I thought
[C#dim]When I first believed you
Why can[Am]'t I share your l[D]aughter?
[C]Shake off [G]the weight
It was [Em]later than I thought
[C#dim]When I first believed
That I can[Am]not share your l[D]aughter
[C]Shake off the [G]weight[Am][D][C][G]
You
