[Introduction]

Am

[Verse 1]

Am                     Em
Oh my captain, Oh my captain
          F                C
I've been working hard for you
          F                C
Trying to make you love me too
      F              C         G
Doing all that I can do for my captain
      Am                 C
Oh my captain, open your eyes
        F            C 
See the rebel on the stairs
              F            C
And are there roamers everywhere
           F                 C            G
And how it seems that no one cares for my captain


[Chorus1]

G7                   C     F
Tell me now what is going on
G                         C        F
  See the ground that I'm standing on
       Em             F
How it crumbles at my feet
      Em               C
As we dance you remind me

[Verse 2]

      Am             Em
Oh my captain, Oh my captain
       F              C
I've remembered every song
             F                    C
And now I've learned to sing them all
        F              C             G   
Still I wonder what is wrong with my captain
      Am                  C
Oh my captain, hold on to me
        F              C 
Tell me why you let me go
            F                C 
And why the anchor man needs rope
        F                C           G
Already half way off the boat for my captain



[Chorus2]

G7                  C     F
Tell me now what is going on
G                        C      F
  See the tower that I'm calling from
       Em                F
How it shakes beneath my feet
      Em              C
As we fall you remind me


[Instrumental]

[Chorus3]

G7                  C     F
Tell me now what is going on
G                      C       F
See the tower that I'm falling from
       Em                F
How it breaks beneath my feet
      Em             C
As we fly it reminds me


[Outro]

      Am             Em
Oh my captain, Oh my captain
         F              C
Now it's time for me to part
           F              C
To rip the needle from my heart
        F                 C     G     C
We were so wrong from the start oh my captain
