Down Among The Dead Men

Flash And The Pan


Tom: Am

       Am     Am/G
It was night,      a starry moonless sight
Fmaj7                       E/G#
   Out in the mid Atlantic       there sailed a ship of light
        Am   Am/G
She was big,     this ship of luxury
Fmaj7                       E/G#
   Everything was peaceful,     no safer place to be


[Chorus]
        F                  D7
And she sailed through the night
       C          F    G
On her way
G G# Am             C    Am    G  F   G   Am
     Down among the dead men
Am/G Am        C    Am    G  F   G   Am
Down among the dead men
                 C  F  G  C     C   F   G  C
The band played
C G Am                  E/G#
         She sailed the virgin
C/G               D/F#
   She sailed the sea
F G  Am             C    Am    G  F   G   Am
     Down among the dead men


[Verse]
        Am     Am/G
Captain Smith,     the master in command
Fmaj7                            E/G#
    A man with wealth of wisdom,     a fine upstanding man
        Am     Am/G
But the fog...     He didn't hear the calls
Fmaj7                           E/G#
   The ice mountain was waiting     for fifteen hundred souls


[Chorus]
        F                  D7
And she sailed through the night
       C          F    G
On her way
G G# Am             C    Am    G  F   G   Am
     Down among the dead men
Am/G Am        C    Am    G  F   G   Am
Down among the dead men
                 C  F  G  C     C  F  G  C    C  F  G  C    C  F  G  C
The band played
C G Am                  E/G#
         She sailed the virgin
C/G               D/F#
   She sailed the sea
F G  Am             C    Am    G  F   G   Am
     Down among the dead men
Am/G Am        C    Am    G  F          G      Am
Down among the dead men        and into history
