Despite Repeated Warnings

A Amaj7               A7      B7/F#
Despite repeated warnings
           Dm/F E
Of dangers up ahead
A    Em                 D
The captain won't be listening
                  E
To what's been said


[Verse 2]
A  Amaj7                        
He feels that there's a good 
A7      B7/F#
chance
             Dm/F     E
That we have been misled
A   Em                   D
And so the captain's planning
           E
To steam ahead


[Bridge 1]
Am              G
What can we do, what can we do
F/A                               
What can we do to stop this 
  E
foolish plan going through?
Am              G/A
What can we do, what can we do? 
(Yeah, yeah)
F/A                           E
This man is bound to lose his ship 
and his crew
C   D
Oh, oh


[Verse 3]
A  Amaj7             A7          
Despite repeated warnings
B7/F#

                Dm/F     E
From those who ought to know
A          Em              D
Well, he's got his own agenda
              E
And so he'll go


[Bridge 2]
Am
(What can we do?)
                            G/A
Those who shout the loudest (What 
can we do?)
                               F/A
May not always be the smartest (What
 can we do?)
But they have their proudest moments
E


Right before they fall
Am
(What can we do?)
                      G/A
Red sky in the morning (What can we 
do?)
                              F/A
Doesn't ever seem to faze him (What 
can we do?)
                             E
But a sailor's warning signal
                       C   D
Should concern us all, oh, oh

[Verse 1]
C9
The engineer lives with his wife and
 daughter, Janet
Em7
But he misses them so
C9
Although he's working with the best 
crew on the planet (Best crew on the
 planet!)
Em7
They never want him to go
C9
He had a premonition, he senses 
something's wrong
Em7
And by his own admission, he knew it
 all along
C9
The captain's crazy, but he doesn't 
let them know it
Em
He'll take us with him if we don't 
do something soon to slow it!

We can save the day

The needle's going up, the engine's

And we are gonna be left down below

A  Amaj7            A7         B7/F#
Despite repeated warnings
           Dm/F  E
Of dangers up ahead
A          Em/G             D
Well, the captain wasn't listening
                E
To what was said


[Otro]
Am
So we went to the captain (What can 
we do? / For those who shout the 
loudest)
G/A
And we told him to turn around (What
 can we do? / May not always be the 
smartest)
F/A
But he laughs in our faces (What can
 we do? / But they have their 
proudest moments)
E
Says that we are mistaken (Right 
before they fall)
Am
So we gather around him (What can we
 do? / Red sky in the morning)
G/A
Now the ropes that have bound him 
(What can we do? / Doesn't ever seem
 to faze him)
F/A
Prove that he should have listened 
(What can we do? / But a sailor's 
warning signal) (Should concern us 
all)
E
To the will of the people
C
It's the will of the people
D
It's the will of the people
