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?
[repeat twice and fade]
