Intro:

Am, Fm, Am, Fm

Verse 1:

Am                         Fm
I crewed on a fair golden ship that
     Am                          Fm
went down at the dawn of the world
      Am                       Fm
We mutinied had sentenced our captain to die
           Am                 Fm
'fore our sails had barely unfurled 
 
Break:

Am, Fm, Am, Fm

Verse 2:
      
   Am                     Fm
We sank shortly after our riot, 
         Am                       Fm
Wanton flames and our powder kegs met
         Am                      Fm
While I swam for my life became voices aloft, 
 Am                     Fm    
joyful, unearthly, and dread

Chorus:

   C    E7   Dm      Am   Dm       E7   F
Singing of a vio----lent, tireless mystery
      C         E7       Dm       Am       Dm      E7  Fm
That one would give his life      to      save his enemies

Verse 3:

     Am                        Fm
Too bone tired to keep my arms moving
    Am                         Fm
To swim or even grasp out for straws
Am                    Fm    
Undertow drew me down into its cold 
      Am             Fm
and infinite, indigo jaws

Bridge: 

 G        F                    G        F
Ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh    
 G        F                    G       Dm 
Ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh    

Chorus:

         C    E7   Dm      Am   Dm       E7   F
I was singing of a vio----lent, tireless mystery
      C         E7       Dm       Am       Dm      E7  Fm
That one would give his life      to      save his enemies

Verse 4:

 Am                         Fm
Thought I must be dead or dreaming
         Am                      Fm
When my captain still battered, betrayed
          Am                   Fm
Pulled me up, laid me over the beam he clung to
             Am                      Fm
Breathed his last and sank under the waves

Outro:

     Am         Fm     Am               Fm
Your body is a bridge across an endless sea
     Am         Fm     Am               Fm (let ring)
Your body is a bridge across an endless sea
        









I crewed on a fair golden ship that
went down at the dawn of the world
We mutinied had sentenced our captain to die
'fore our sails had barely unfurled

We sank shortly after our riot,
Wanton flames and our powder kegs met
While I swam for my life became voices aloft,
joyful, unearthly, and dread

Singing of a violent, tireless mystery
That one would give his life to save his enemies

Too bone tired to keep my arms moving
To swim or even grasp out for straws
Undertow drew me down into its cold
and infinite, indigo jaws

I was singing of a violent, tireless mystery
That one would give his life to save his enemies

Thought I must be dead or dreaming
When my captain still battered, betrayed
Pulled me up, laid me over the beam he clung to
Breathed his last and sank under the waves

Your body is a bridge across an endless sea
