Here it is! I have had many a request for this one, I was surprised to
see the Polka Bastards were not on Olga. I think this is pretty close I
watched them play it at a recent concert in the Twin Cities.

Intro: A,B9,B,C9,A,B9,B,C9,C,B,A,C,B,A

A B9 B C9
O`Captain my captain the ship is going down

A B9 B C9
O`Captain my captain won`t you please turn around

C B A
Women and children on the life raft first

C B A
No pushing no shoving, I said children first

A B9 B C9
O`Captain my captain won`t you come aboard

A B9 B C9
There is nothing that you can do any more

C B A
But the captain just stood and looked over stern

C B A
Whith a look in his eye a look of concern

A B9 B C9
O`Captain my captain it`s your last chance

A B9 B C9
O`Captain my captain live again to dance

C B A
But the water rose to the captains knee

C B A
As the ship sunk to the bottom of the sea

A B9 B C9
O`Captain my captain I bid the farewell

A B9 B C9
O`Captain my captain what a tale they will tell

C B A
With the captains last breath he tipped his hat to me

C B A
That is all of the captain that I`ll ever see

A B9 B C9
O`Captain my captain now turned to bubbles

>From here they go (on the album) into the big jam, but
I don`t have time to tab that out now. If I get any
requests, maybe I`ll post it later.
