GHe was a fugitive with a pseudo name
CLost his mind in a hurricaDne
GCoconut upside his head
CPeople said he'd be better deDad
EmCause his glory days are gone
CSits on the shore with his saxophone
DandD/C pla
In another place, in another time
He was a soldier in his prime
On the battlefield, makin' history
Young men died for his destiny
And their widows came each day
Till he was forced to run away
From home
So he bought a town, but he sold the sea
Claimed a shallow victory
On an iron ship, with a wooden crew
They hit the reef when the moon was new
Now he cries himself to sleep
On a beach made of promises he meant to keep
Long ago

D/ACNobody SpeaksD To The Captain No MoGre
CNobody talks about the wDar
CHey what the hell were wDe fighting fGor
CSuch a long long time agDo
EmAnd now the monkeys and the iguanDas
EmThey listen to his sonDg
EmA most uncaptive audiencDe
A7He plays to all night lonDg D/C
So the story goes, he was dressed to kill
When he jumped from the old mahogany mill
And the jungle beasts, they were heard to wail
As the saxophone still played the scale
For a man they never know who looked like me and you
Long ago
Nobody Speaks To The Captain No More
No one is interested in settling old scores
Hey what the hell were we fighting for
Such a long, long time ago
Nobody Speaks to The Captain No More
No one is interested in settling old scores
Hey what the hell were we fighting for
Such a long time ago
