//Intro = E5 G#/E A Am6 2x E5 G#/E A Am6 Repair the hull, replace the sails. E5 G#/E A Am6 The monkey wrestles with the ghost F#7 A7 And a thousand pleasures form a thin veneer B B/C B Over lack of hope. C#m F# B B/C B The captain was rightly murdered by the crew C#m F# B2 A But now they don't know what to do - E5 C# F# B7 E5 G#/E A Am6 Drifting on the murky Sargasso of the everyday. //Then basically the same again Work and slave and skimp and save And you can buy yourself a bigger cave And a thousand little cruelties we agree to pretend to ignore.
