      D   G        D    G       D     G      D G 
Everybody  listen to me  and return me  my ship 
 
          D     G            D     G 
I'm your captain   I'm your captain

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

As it's tightening  around my throat

Heaven help me  heaven help me

And return me  my ship
