         Intro
         -----
         Dm  Bb/D  Bo/D Bb/D     x2      repeat before each verse.
         
         Verse 1
         -------
         Dm              Em/D
           Oh, come away from the day. Here I stay,
           F/D           G/D           Dm     Em/D  F/D  Em/D
           Living on the bottom of the sea.
         Dm                 Em/D 
           Down metal snake corriders, steely grey
           F/D             G/D        Dm      Em/D  F/D  Em/D
           Engines hum for nobody but me.
         Gm               Am
           No sound comes from the sea above me;
         Bb            C                          F      G Bb7 A
           No messages crackles through the radio leads.
         Dm                    Em/D
           They'll never know, never, no, never, 
               F/D                  G/D           Dm  Bb/D Bo/D Bb/D
           How strange life in dark water can be.
         
         
         Verse 2
         -------
         Dm              Em/D
           Oh, Mariners, spare a thought when you pass
           F/D                G/D       Dm    Em/D  F/D  Em/D
           Those who live the submarine life.
         Dm                 Em/D     
           Far in the deep, sonar eyes never sleep,
           F/D           G/D           Dm
           Hiding like a shadow in the night.
         Gm                Am
           Jet planes nose through the clouds above me;
         Bb              C                     F    G  Bb7 A
           They look for radar traces of me to see.
         Dm                    Em/D
           They'll never know, never, no, never,
               F/D                  G/D         Dm  Bb/D  Bo/D  Bb/D
           How strange life in dark water can be.
         
         
         Bridge
         ------
         Gm                                       F
           Wonder what the stars look like comin' out tonight.
         Gm                 C
           Tell my girl she must be strong.
         F                    Dm
           She sits and waits all night long, yeah,
           Gm                       Am
           Yeah, just looking for a better day.
         Gm                      Am              Dm  Bb/D  Bo/D  Bb/D
           She'll have to find another way to go.
         
         
         Verse 3
         -------
         Dm           Em/D
           No memory; tell me what's wrong with me.
           F/D       G/D               Dm    Em/D  F/D  Em/D
           Why am I alone here with no rest?
         Dm                 Em/D
           And now the name of the ship's not the same.
           F/D             G/D           Dm    Em/D  F/D  Em/D
           How long has it been Maries Celeste?
         Gm              Am
           Now there's nobody from the crew left.
         Bb             C                          F  G  Bb7  A
           Five hundred years' supply of food just me.
         Dm                    Em/D
           They'll never know, never, no, never,
               F/D                  G/D           Dm  Bb/D  Bo/D  Bb/D
           How strange life in dark water can be.
