E5
[Verse 1]
---------------------
E5
Hear the rime of the ancient mariner
See his eye as he stops one of three
Mesmerises one of the wedding guests
C5 E5
Stay here and listen to the nightmares of the sea
C5
And the music plays on, as the bride passes by
D5 E5
Caught by his spell and the mariner tells his tale
[Verse 2]
---------------------
E5
Driven south to the land of the snow and ice
To a place where nobody's been
Through the snow fog flies on the albatross
C5 E5
Hailed in God's name, hoping good luck it brings
C5
And the ship sails on, back to the north
D5 E5
Through the fog and ice and the albatross follows on
[Break (1)]

E5 | C5 | D5 | C5
D5 | E5
[Verse 3]
---------------------
E5
The mariner kills the bird of good omen
His shipmates cry against what he's done
But when the fog clears, they justify him
And make themselves a part of the crime
C5 D5 E5
Sailing on and on and north across the sea
C5 D5 E5
Sailing on and on and north 'til all is calm
[Verse 4]
---------------------
E5
The albatross begins with its vengeance
A terrible curse, a thirst has begun
His shipmates blame bad luck on the mariner
About his neck, the dead bird is hung
C5 D5 E5
And the curse goes on and on and on at sea
C5 D5 E5
And the thirst goes on and on for them and me
[Verse 5]
---------------------
E5
"Day after day, day after day
We stuck nor breath nor motion
As idle as a painted ship upon a painted ocean
D5
Water, water everywhere and all the boards did shrink
E5
Water, water everywhere nor any drop to drink"
[Verse 6]
---------------------
E5 E5
"There," calls the mariner, "There comes a ship over line
But how can she sail with no wind in her sails and no tide?"
C5
See... onward she comes
A5
Onward she nears, out of the sun
C5
See, she has no crew
A5
She has no life, wait but there's two
[Verse 7]
---------------------
E5
Death and she life in death
They throw their dice for the crew
She wins the mariner and he belongs to her now
C5
Then... crew one by one
A5
They drop down dead, two hundred men
C5
She... she, life in death
A5
She lets him live, her chosen one

A5 | Aaug | Gaug | Aaug
F#aug | Aaug | Gaug
Aaug
"One after one by the star dogged moon
Too quick for groan or sigh
F#aug
Each turned his face with a ghastly pang
And cursed me with his eye
Aaug
Four times fifty living men
(And I heard nor sigh nor groan)
Gaug
With heavy thump, a lifeless lump
They dropped down one by one."

D5
[Verse 8]
---------------------
D5
The curse it lives on in their eyes
The mariner he wished he'd die
Along with the sea creatures
But they lived on, so did he
[Verse 9]
---------------------
D5
And by the light of the moon
He prays for their beauty not doom
With heart he blesses them
God's creatures all of them too
[Verse 10]
---------------------
D5
Then the spell starts to break
The albatross falls from his neck
Sinks down like lead into the sea
A5
Then down in falls comes the rain
[Bridge 2]

[Verse 11]
---------------------
E5
Hear the groans of the long dead seamen
See them stir and they start to rise
Bodies lifted by good spirits
C5 E5
None of them speak and they're lifeless in their eyes
C5
And revenge is still sought, penance starts again
D5 E5
Cast into a trance and the nightmare carries on
[Verse 12]
---------------------
E5
Now the curse is finally lifted
And the mariner sights his home
Spirits go from the long dead bodies
C5 E5
Form their own light and the mariner's left alone
[Verse 13]
---------------------
E5
And then a boat came sailing towards him
It was a joy he could not believe
The pilot's boat, his son and the hermit
Penance of life will fall onto him
C5 D5 E5
And the ship is sinks like lead into the sea
C5 D5 E5
And the hermit shrieves the mariner of his sins
[Verse 14]
---------------------
E5
The mariner's bound to tell of his story
To tell this tale wherever he goes
To teach God's word by his own example
That we must love all things that God made
C5 D5 E5
And the wedding guest's a sad and wiser man
[Outro]
---------------------
C5 D5 E5
And the tale goes on and on and on and on
