D5   G5        D5    G5       D5     G5      D5 G5 
Everybody  listen to me  and return me  my ship 
          D5     G5            D5     G5 
I'm your captain   I'm your captain 
            D5     G5         D5  G5   D5  G5  D5  G5 
Though I'm feeling  mighty sick 
           D5      G5          D5     G5          
I've been lost now  days uncounted 
          D5          G5            D5   G5 
And it's months since  I've seen home 
         D5     G5          D5     G5 
Can you hear me  can you hear me 
   D5   G5       D5  G5   D5  G5 
Or am I  all alone 
             D5     G5        D5       G5 
If you'll return me  to my home port 
        D5      G5         D5   G5 
I will kiss you  mother earth 
         D5      G5          D5      G5 
Take me back now  take me back now 
        D5  G5        D5   G5  D5  G5 
To the port  of my birth 
D5           Bb5 
Am I in my cabin dreaming 
D5           Bb5 
Or are you really scheming 
D5           Bb5             F5  A5 
To take my ship away from me 
 D5            Bb5 
You'd better think about it 
D5             Bb5 
I just can't live without it 
 D5               Bb5                F5  A5 
So please don't take my ship from me  yeah yeah

(Main Riff 4 Times) 
       D5           G5         D5    G5 
I can feel the hand  of a stranger 
         D5        G5              D5  G5 
As it's tightening  around my throat 
        D5     G5         D5     G5 
Heaven help me  heaven help me 
             D5    G5          D5  G5  D5  G5 
Take this stranger  from my boat 
          D5     G5           D5     G5 
I'm your captain  I'm your captain 
            D5     G5         D5  G5 
Though I'm feeling  mighty sick 
      D5  G5         D5   G5 
Everybody  listen to me 
       D5     G5      D5 
And return me  my ship 
          D5        G5              D5  G5 
I'm your captain  yeah yeah yeah yeah 
          D5        G5              D5  G5 
I'm your captain  yeah yeah yeah yeah
