          C 
And I am Ahab 
         G                            D 
I am the captain of this rusty bucket ship 
          D 
I left my home 
              C 
In search of big gold 
   G                                     D 
I promised my family that Id break the mold 
         D                     C 
So I set sail for the land of greener grass 
            G 
But so much time has passed 
                            D

Hope on a rope 
              C 
The butt of a bad joke

That-a-boy, way to go

Hope on a rope

[Verso 2]
 
           D 
Compass is broke 
                  C 
It gives me no direction 
   G 
It reads like a riddle 
                       D 
Gotta see through the smoke 
           D                  C 
Stay the course folks will all say 
      G                                    D 
From port to port, but they never know the way 
           D                   C 
Deliver me Lord, some kind of answer 
      G                                      D 
This dreams a cancer, and I cant paddle no more

Our hope like a carrot on a rope

Our hope like a carrot on a rope 
      G 
Just out of reach

Thar she blows

Our hope like a carrot on a rope 
        G 
Always off in the distance 
          D
