INTRO: Bb 

 
Bb                              F 
Tell me, quick, said Old McFee..what's this all have  
                Cm                Eb             Bb 
to do with me?..I've spent all my time at sea, a loner. 
Bb                                      F 
Is there something else I should know?..something hidden  
                Cm       Eb         Bb 
down below, the level of your conversation? 

 
         Gm          Cm         F 
Well, he turned away before the answer.. 
         Gm            Cm            F 
though I yelled aloud, he refused to hear. 
              Bb     Eb Bb  
It became too clear..
 


Bb                         F 
So, it went as we put out..I was left in constant doubt.. 
Cm           Eb                 Bb 
everything I asked about seemed private. 
Bb                                         F 
The captain strolled the bridge one night..I stopped him  
                      Cm                  Eb 
in the evening light..to ask him would it be all right to  
Bb 
join him. 

 
       Gm          Cm        F 
But he stood there like some idol..  
       Gm       Cm        F 
and he listened like some temple.. 
                    Bb  Eb Bb  
and then he turned away. 

 
Bb                           F 
All along the fateful coast..we moved silent, like a ghost. 
Cm                  Eb            Bb 
The timeless sea of tireless host possessed us. 
Bb 
The wind came building from the cold northwest..  
F                                  Cm                 Eb 
and soon the waves began to crest, crashing cross the forward 
          Bb 
deck..all hands lost. 

 
  Gm     Cm           F 
I alone, survived the sinking.. 
  Gm     Cm            F 
I alone, possessed the tools, on  
             Bb    Eb Bb  
that ship of fools.

Ship of fools......on that ship of fools.. 
Bb                  Eb Bb  
that ship of fools..
