          ------------verse-------------

(play verse chord progression as shown above while singing;
I've included chord names but look at tab for voicings)
[Dsus2]seventy[D] three men[Dsus2] sailed[D] up
from the [E]san francis[E7]co bay[E]
[G7]rolled off of their ship
and h[G6]eres what they [Dsus2]had to[D] say[Dsus2]
we're [Dsus2]calling[D] everyone to ri[Dsus2]de alon[D]g
[E]to anot[E7]her shore[E]
[G7]we can laugh our lives [G6]away
and be [Dsus2]free on[D]ce more
[Dsus2]no one [D]heard them [Dsus2]calling[D]
[E]no one came a[E7]t all
[G7]cause they were too busy watching
G6 Dsus2 D D5 Dsus4 D ('end of verse'
those old raindrops fall chords)
[Dsus2]as a st[D]orm was [Dsus2]blowin
[E]out on a peac[E7]eful sea[E]
[G7]seventy three men sailing [G6]on to [Dsus2]histor[D]y
         -----------(chorus)------------

[D]ride captain ride   upon your [A]mystery ship
[A]be [B] am[C]azed at the friends  you're having [D]on your trip
[D]ride captain ride   upon your [A]mystery ship
[A]on y[B]our [C]way  to a world  that others [D]might have missed
  (next, play pre-solo riff 1x, and then play D-Bb-D-Bb-A chords

during 1st solo...)
(...now go back and sing/play 1st eight lines of verse (up to
and including "and be free once more" line...))
(..finally, sing/play chorus again 2x, and then just play
chorus chords as 2nd solo fades out)
