It was [G]midnight on the sea[G7]-
Band playing, [C]"Nearer My God to Thee"[G]-
Cryin' fare thee, Titanic, fare
thee well[D7]-
It was [G]midnight on the sea[G7]-
Titanic, when it got its load,
Captain hollered, "All aboard"
Cryin' fare thee, Titanic, fare thee well
Jack Johnson want to get on board,
Captain said, "I ain't haulin' no coal."
Cryin' fare thee, Titanic, fare thee
well
Titanic was comin' 'round the curve
When it ran into that great big iceberg
Cryin' fare thee, Titanic, fare thee
well
Titanic was sinking down,
Had them lifeboats all around.
Cryin' fare thee, Titanic, fare thee well
Had them lifeboats around,
Savin' the women and children, lettin' the men go down.
Cryin' fare thee, Titanic, fare
thee well
Jack Johnson heard the mighty shock
Might 'a' seen him doin' the Eagle Rock.
Cryin' fare thee, Titanic, fare thee
well
When the women and children got on the land,
Cryin' "Lord have mercy on my man.
Cryin' fare thee, Titanic, fare
thee well
