E5 Ab/E A Am6
Repair the hull, replace the sails.
E5 Ab/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 Ab/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.
The ghost has got the monkey by the tail
And all they both can do is wail.
And you and I go drifting by the abandoned vessels of the everyday.
