Sea Shanty Lyrics

It's only very rough, but as there seems to be not one other tab on the internet by this
band I thought I'd rectify that.
//Intro = ( E5 G#/E A Am6 ) x2
Repair the hull, replace the sails.
The monkey wrestles with the ghost
And a thousand pleasures form a thin veneer
Over lack of hope.
The captain was rightly murdered by the crew
But now they don't know what to do -
m6
Drifting on the murky Sargasso of the everyday.
//Then basically the same again
Work and slave and skimp and save
And you can buy yourself a bigger cave
And a thousand little cruelties we agree to pretend to ignore.
The ghost has got the monkey by the tail
And all they both can do is wail.
And you and I go drifting by the abandoned vessels of the everyday.
