Everybody, listen to me
And return me my ship
I^�m your captain, I^�m your captain
Though I^�m feeling mighty sick
I^�ve been lost now, days uncounted
And it^�s months since I^�ve seen home
Can you hear me? Can you hear me?
Poor am I, all alone
If you return me to my home port
I will kiss you mother earth
Take me back now, take me back now
To the port of my birth
[A]Am [Dm]I in my cab[Bb]in dream[Dm]ing
Or are you really scheming
To take my ship away from [F]me?[A]
[Dm]You better [Bb]think about it[Dm]
I just can^�t live without it
So please don^�t [Bb]take my ship from[F] me[A]

Yeah yeah yeah

I can feel the hand of a stranger
And it^�s tied me around my throat
Heaven help me, heaven help me
Take this stranger off my boat
I^�m your captain, I^�m your captain
Though I^�m feeling mighty sick
Everybody, listen to me
And return me me ship
I^�m your captain, yeah, yeah yeah
I^�m getting closer to my home (27 times till fade)
