Dance Band On The Titanic

Words and Music by Harry Chapin

Chords from http://chapinmusic.com/lyrics/dance_band_on_the_titanic.html



D
Dance band on the Titanic
                      A
Sing nearer my God to Thee
     A7
The iceberg's on the starboard bow
G         A          D
Won't you dance with me?


E7
Mama stood crying at the dockside

Sayin' "Please son don't take this trip."
        A7
I said "Momma, sweet momma, don't you worry none
     B7
Even God couldn't sink this ship."
          E7
Well the whistle blew and they turned the screws

And churned the water into foam
A7
Destination - Sweet salvation
   B7   C7         B7
Goodbye home sweet home

           E
I'm in the dance band on the Titanic
                         B7
Sing nearer my God to Thee

The iceberg's on the starboard bow
                         E - B
Won't you dance with me?


      E7
There was a trombone and a saxophone

The bass and drums were cookin' on the bandstand
           A7
And I was strummin' in the middle with this dude on a fiddle
            B7
And we were three days out from land
        E7
Now the foghorn's jammed and moaning

Hear it groaning through the misty night
             A7
I heard the lookout shout down "There's icebergs around
    B7     C7             B7
But still everything's alright."


        E
Aw the dance band on the Titanic
                       B7
Sing nearer my God to Thee

The iceberg's on the starboard bow
                     E - E5 - F#5 - G5 - Ab5
Won't you dance with me?


          A
They were burning all the flares for candles

In a banquet they were throwing in first class
    B                              G
And we were blowing waltzes in the ballroom
         B7                   B5 - C5 - C#5 - D5 - Eb5
When the universe went crash!
        E7
"There's no way that this could happen!"
                        Eb7  - D7 - C#7 - C7 - B7 - Bb7
I could hear the old captain curse
            A7
He ordered life boats away, that's when I heard the chaplin say
           B7                              E7
"Women and children and chaplins first!"

          E7
Well they soon used up all of the life boats

But there were a lot of us left on board
              A7
I heard the drummer saying, "Boys, just keep playing
          B7        C7           B7
Now we're doing this date for the Lord."

            E
I heard the dance band on the Titanic
                       B7
Sing nearer my God to Thee

The iceberg's on the starboard bow
                     E - E5 - F#5 - G5 - Ab5
Won't you dance with me?
          A
There's a wild-eyed boy in the radio shack

He's the last remaining guest
        B                       G
He was tapping in a morse code frenzy
B7                             [Notes only] B (14 x's)
Tappin' "Please God, S.O.S."


 E7
Jesus Christ can walk on the water

Well a music-man will drown
              A
They say that Nero fiddled while Rome burned up
              B7               C7       B7
Well I'll be strummin' as the ship goes down

           E
I'm in the dance band on the Titanic

Sing nearer my God to Thee
B7
The iceberg's on the starboard bow
                      E
Won't you dance with me?
