Intro:

F C G Am G *2


Verse:

F                    C       G Am      G
Oh the evening another song behind

F                          C      G Am    G
A steam is rising and we are rolling on

F               
Oh, and [t]here's a bottle of wine

               C                  G    Am         G
Let's drink a toast to the new world arising

 F                                         G Am 
Oh, while the hands on the timekeys keep turning

  G    Am      G                  F
Keep turning, we are never going home


Chorus:

C                   Em                        F                   C       
The weight of time inside the oceanliner made the ship go down
C                   G                     F                
The weight of time inside the oceanliner, we going down

  C                                      Em
Yeah, and it's about time we were on our way
               F                           C
Oh it's old times you see [the/her] sinking
C                           G
Oh it's coming out loud in here
                F
Keep on turning

Keep turning 'round

F C G Am C*2


Verse:
F                      C          G  Am       G
Oh forest pine, a bitter taste of defeat

F                           C        G Am       G
Of blood and iron, must away from this heat

F                                      C          G Am    G
Oh and now a cannibal flies, no mercy, for us down here

F 
Oh for the past and the present

                 G Am  
Once and for all, we wage war

G Am       G            F
On the 20th century rising


Chorus:

C                   Em                        F                   C
The weight of time inside the oceanliner made the ship go down

C                   G                     F                
We're parting, tonight, [now] with the oceanliner, we going down

C                                 Em
And it's about time we were on our way

        F                           C
Oh it's old times you see the/her sinking

                G
Oh it's coming out loud in here

                      F
Just keep on turning
Yeah, oh, keep turning 'round

Oh dangling on an old general's chest, there's an old silver head

F                                        C           G   Am         G
Oh the spirit of a generation sent to rest with the nations best

F                                   C            G   Am        G
And all asleep, and grab the hammer and sical, my brother

F                                   G   Am      
Oh and leave it for the captain to ponder over

G    Am        G                  F
Why his ship, sank beneath the waves
