[Intro]
Am
[Verse 1]
Am                Dm       Am
Snaefell Tynwald, Ben-my-Chree,
Am                  E          Am
Fourteen ships have sailed the sea.
         D      G      Em
Proudly bearing a Manx name,
Am                   Em     Am
But there's one will never again.

[Chorus]
Dm       Am             Dm                Am
Oh Ellen Vannen, of the Isle of Man Company,

Dm       Am      C           Em    Am
Oh Ellen Vannen, lost in the Irish Sea

[Verse 2]
   Am          Dm     Am
At One a.m. in Ramsey Bay,
Am                E        Am
Captain Teare was heard to say,
    D             G           Em
Our contract says Deliver the mail.
    Am                   Em       Am
In this rough weather we must not fail.

[Chorus]
Dm       Am             Dm                Am
Oh Ellen Vannen, of the Isle of Man Company,

Dm       Am      C           Em    Am
Oh Ellen Vannen, lost in the Irish Sea

[Verse 3]
      Am               Dm       Am
Ocean Liners sheltered from the storm,
      Am            E         Am
Ellen Vannen on the waves was born.
    Am       D        G        Em
Her hold was full and battened down,
       Am                 Em        Am
As she sailed towards far Liverpool town.

[Chorus]
Dm       Am             Dm                Am
Oh Ellen Vannen, of the Isle of Man Company,

Dm       Am      C           Em    Am
Oh Ellen Vannen, lost in the Irish Sea

[Verse 4]
       Am             Dm      Am
With a crew of twenty-one Manxmen,
    Am                   E        Am
Her passengers Liverpool business men;
    Am      D      G        Em
Farewell to Mona's Isle farewell,
Am                   Em        Am
This little ship was bound for hell.

[Chorus]
Dm       Am             Dm                Am
Oh Ellen Vannen, of the Isle of Man Company,

Dm       Am      C           Em    Am
Oh Ellen Vannen, lost in the Irish Sea

[Verse 5]
Am                        Dm       Am
Less than a mile from the Bar lightship,
     Am                E          Am
By a mighty wave Ellen Vannen was hit.
    Am          D         G         Em
She sank in the waters of Liverpool Bay,
    Am               Em       Am
And there she lies until this day.

[Chorus]
Dm       Am             Dm                Am
Oh Ellen Vannen, of the Isle of Man Company,

Dm       Am      C           Em    Am
Oh Ellen Vannen, lost in the Irish Sea

[Verse 6]
    Am      Dm    Am
You Manxmen now remember,
    Am               E       Am
The third day of the month December,
  Am       D        G        Em
A terrible storm in Nineteen Nine,
      Am                    Em        Am
Ellen Vannen sailed for the very last time.

[Chorus]
Dm       Am             Dm                Am
Oh Ellen Vannen, of the Isle of Man Company,

Dm       Am      C           Em    Am
Oh Ellen Vannen, lost in the Irish Sea
