Intro:

Em, Cm, Em, Cm

Verse 1:

Em                         Cm
I crewed on a fair golden ship that
     Em                          Cm
went down at the dawn of the world
      Em                       Cm
We mutinied had sentenced our captain to die
           Em                 Cm
'fore our sails had barely unfurled 
 
Break:

Em, Cm, Em, Cm

Verse 2:
      
   Em                     Cm
We sank shortly after our riot, 
         Em                       Cm
Wanton flames and our powder kegs met
         Em                      Cm
While I swam for my life became voices aloft, 
 Em                     Cm    
joyful, unearthly, and dread

Chorus:

   G    B7   Am      Em   Am       B7   G
Singing of a vio----lent, tireless mystery
      G         B7       Am       Em       Am      B7  Cm
That one would give his life      to      save his enemies

Verse 3:

     Em                        Cm
Too bone tired to keep my arms moving
    Em                         Cm
To swim or even grasp out for straws
Em                    Cm    
Undertow drew me down into its cold 
      Em             Cm
and infinite, indigo jaws

Bridge: 

 D        G                    D        G
Ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh    
 D        G                    D       Am 
Ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh    

Chorus:

         G    B7   Am      Em   Am       B7   G
I was singing of a vio----lent, tireless mystery
      G         B7       Am       Em       Am      B7  Cm
That one would give his life      to      save his enemies

Verse 4:

 Em                         Cm
Thought I must be dead or dreaming
         Em                      Cm
When my captain still battered, betrayed
          Em                   Cm
Pulled me up, laid me over the beam he clung to
             Em                      Cm
Breathed his last and sank under the waves

Outro:

     Em         Cm     Em               Cm
Your body is a bridge across an endless sea
     Em         Cm     Em               Cm (let ring)
Your body is a bridge across an endless sea
        

Thank you everyone! Enjoy :3
