[Verse 1]
Bm
Round robin round
Fbm
We were all hypnotized by the sound
Bm
Of the tales from the old country
F# Bm
Told for a pint and a pound
Bm
Stories of battles at sea
Fbm
From a voice that could shake down the trees
Bm
And the face of an angel
F# Bm
All battered by grand tragedy
[Chorus]
Fbm A
Raise your glass in the air
Bm F#
With a tear in your eye
Fbm A F#
Time has come now to bid him goodbye
Bm Fbm
For at first light this morn
Bm F#
The old captain has died
Bm F# Bm
Let him live on in legend tonight
[Verse 2]
Bm
No soul shared his name
Fbm
And he sought neither fortune nor fame
Bm
But this old dusty tavern
F# Bm
Is kingdom o'er with he would reign
Bm
Not a chapter in life he forgot
Fbm
And the truth of it all mattered not
Bm F#
For adventure and grandeur and rapture
Bm
We'd feast on the lot
[Chorus]
Fbm A
Raise your glass in the air
Fbm F#
With a tear in your eye
Fbm A F#
Time has come now to bid him goodbye
Bm Fbm
For at first light this morn
Bm F#
The old captain has died
Bm F# Bm
Let him live on in legend tonight
Fbm A
Now the stars will shine brightly
Fbm F#
No more in the sky
Fbm A F#
They have lost their best sailor to guide
They've lost their best sailor to guide
Bm Fbm
For at first light this morn
Bm F#
The old captain has died
Bm F# Bm
Let him live on in legend tonight
