Wreck of the Antoinette
guitar chords lyrics
(Spoken) Full fathom five, on the seabed she lies - the Antoinette. I sailed with the dawn and the wind belw free 'Cross the bright shining sea And it filled the sails of my Antoinette. Good by home and the one I love Good my faith and the sky and the stars above Cause there's nothing in this world I wouldn't bet. On my Antoinette. She carried their name And for you I'll try To be strong or I'll die. And I'll find my grave In the rolling wave. Ride on baby don't you let me down. Ocean's big and you don't wanna see me drown. But a bitter rain begins to beat the deck Of the Antoinette. See the rain come lashing There's a sudden flash of lightning on the foam. Hold on, Antoinette. The ocean rounds in fury On a man who fights against it all alone Keep on, Antoinette. She goes down with a sigh And with her is her last cry: Antoinette! Antoinette! Dawn breaks on the sea And the long dark night. Now his way to the light And no trace remains of the Antoinette. Deep she lies on the ocean floor, Far away from the girl who waits by the shore Does she know her love is buried in the wreck Of the Antoinette? Deep she lies, deep she lies. Antoinette! Antoinette!
