Get On Board

[Verse 1]
      Gm
I was born in a dirty old seaport
F                        Gm
Raised just on water and bread
Gm
My father drank, my mother was a 
whore
  F                     Gm
I always went hungry to bed
Gm
No work, no aim, but a burning heart
        F                  Gm
And the wish to leave this place
Gm
I stood there lost right on the quay
       F              Gm
When a man came up to me
Gm
And he said:


[Pre-Chorus]
Dm      Am
I'm a captain
  C                       Dm
I see that you suffer, my friend
                         Am
Come with me we're gonna sail away
C                      Dm   N.C.
Let me be your helping hand


[Chorus]
Gm     F             C
Get on board, get on board
Gm          F            C
The ship is put to sea tonight
Gm     F             C
Get on board, get on board

[Verse 2]
Gm
I sailed around the world with him
    F             Gm
Got money and got fame
Gm
And when he died I got his boat
    F                    Gm
And I took the captain's name
Gm
He told me what I'm living for
    F                 Gm
And I want to act his way
Gm
I'm gonna talk to the people in town
      F                     Gm
And I know what I've got to say:


[Pre-Chorus]
Dm    Am
I'm a captain
  C                       Dm
I see that you suffer, my friend
                         Am
Come with me we're gonna sail away
C                      Dm   N.C.
Let me be your helping hand


[Chorus]

Gm          F            C
The ship is put to sea tonight
Gm     F             C
Get on board, get on board
