Titanic

	  		A It was on one Monday morning a-{D} bout one o'-{A} clock 
When that great Titanic be-{B7} gan to reel and E7 rock 
People be-{A} gan to scream and cry 
Saying, oh! D Lord, were bound to A die 
It was sad when that E7 great ship went A down. 
 
It was D sad when that great ship went A down 
It was sad when that great ship went E7 down 
A husbands and their wives, 
Little D children lost their A lives 
It was sad when that E7 great ship went A down. 
 
When bulding that great ship, they said what they would do 
They said that they could builld a ship that water could not go thru 
God with power in his hand, showed the world it could not stand 
It was sad when that great ship went down. 
 
When that great ship left England, she was making for the shores 
When the rich declared, they would not ride with the poor 
So they put the poor below and they were the first to go 
It was sad when that great ship went down. 
 
CHORUS
