C                            F
It was on one Monday morning just about one o'clock
C                       G
When that great Titanic began to reel and rock
C
People began to scream and cry,
        F
Saying "Lord, am I going to die?"
       C             G               C
It was sad when that great ship went down

[Chorus]

       F          C
It was sad,it was sad,
                                     G
It was sad when that great ship went down,
C                             F
Husbands and wives and little children lost their lives,
       C             G               C
It was sad when that great ship went down.

[Verse 2]

C                        F
While they were building they said what they would do,
C                         G
We will build a ship that water can't go through;
    C
But God with power in hand,
           F
Showed the world that it could not stand.
       C             G               C
It was sad when that great ship went down.

[Chorus]

       F          C
It was sad,it was sad,
                                     G
It was sad when that great ship went down,
C                             F
Husbands and wives and little children lost their lives,
       C             G               C
It was sad when that great ship went down.

[Verse 3]

C                           F
When that ship left England it was making for the shore,
C                                     G
The rich had declared that they would not ride with the poor,
        C
So they put the poor below,
     F
They were the first to go.
       C             G               C
It was sad when  that great ship went down.


[Chorus]

       F          C
It was sad,it was sad,
                                     G
It was sad when that great ship went down,
C                             F
Husbands and wives and little children lost their lives,
       C             G               C
It was sad when that great ship went down.

[Verse 4]

C                                F
Those people on that ship were a long way from home,
C                                   G
With friends all around they didn't know that time had come;
C
Death came riding by,
        F
Sixteen hundred had to die.
       C             G               C
It was sad when that great ship went down.

[Chorus]

       F          C
It was sad,it was sad,
                                     G
It was sad when that great ship went down,
C                             F
Husbands and wives and little children lost their lives,
       C             G               C
It was sad when that great ship went down.
