We All Went Down With The Ship

Written by Ed Harcourt

	  		
INTRO 
Cm     Cm/Eb Cm/D 
Cm     Cm/Eb Cm/D 

Cm 
We were only doing what the captain said 
   Cm/Eb                  Cm/D 
We all went down with the ship 
    Cm 
The Crow's Nest splintered on the figurehead 
   Cm/Eb                  Cm/D 
We all went down with the ship 

    C 
The kamikaze pilots and the virgin assassins 
     Cm/Eb                 Cm/D 
Were told they would reach paradise 
C 
Down is an army with following orders 
    Cm/Eb                   Cm/D 
Can see it in these zealous eyes 

     Cm 
They pulled out the monsters lie deep in the mind 
   Cm/Eb                  Cm/D 
We all went down with the ship 
    Cm 
The bayonets rusted on the firing line 
   Cm/Eb                  Cm/D 
We all went down with the ship 

  C 
I heard of all the men who were sent to the trenches 
    Cm/Eb                   Cm/D 
And those with the unmarked graves 
C 
Horrors of the British in the Boer War 
  Cm/Eb               Cm/D 
A Charge of the Light Brigade 

Fm6                       Cm 
 And it's a long long way down 
       G/D 
To the bed of the sea 
Fm6                   Cm 
 Oh I will sink until she 
    Bb7 
She covers me 

Eb 
 We'll suffer for another man's falling 
Bb                G/B            Cm 
 Blindsided by an ego that can't stop 
                                     Ab 
We sink to the bottom to rise to the top and say 
Eb 
 We all fall under the spell of the charmer 
Bb                       G/B             Cm 
 Devil's tongue from the shepherd to his flock 
                                     Ab         Abm6/B 
We sink to the bottom to rise to the top and say 

Cm    Cm/Eb Cm/D 
Cm    Cm/Eb Cm/D 

Cm 
We were only taking what the general desired 
   Cm/Eb                  Cm/D 
We all went down with the ship 
Cm 
For the good and the evil and the noble empire 
   Cm/Eb                  Cm/D 
We all went down with the ship 

        C 
And the gentle persuasion of the master's hand 
Cm/Eb                      Cm/D 
Shadowed in the ark of his rule 
     C 
This history lesson takes a measure of sand 
         Cm/Eb                     Cm/D 
As as it twists and distorts every truth 

Fm6                       Cm 
 And it's a long long way down 
       G/D 
To the bed of the sea 
Fm6                   Cm 
 Oh I will sink until she 
    Bb7 
She covers me 

Eb 
 We'll suffer for another man's falling 
Bb                G/B            Cm 
 Blindsided by an ego that can't stop 
                                     Ab 
We sink to the bottom to rise to the top and say 
Eb 
 We all fall under the spell of the charmer 
Bb                       G/B             Cm 
 Devil's tongue from the shepherd to his flock 
                                     Ab         Abm6/B 
We sink to the bottom to rise to the top and say

We went down, we went down as she went down with the ship
