SINK THE BISMARCK
Johnny Horton
Capo on first fret.

In (D) May of nine-teen for-ty one the (A) war had just be-(D) gun

The (G) Ger-mans had the big-gest ships that (D) had the big-gest guns
(D)
The Bis-marck was the fast-est ship that ever sail-ed the seas

On her decks were guns as big as steers and (A) shells as big as (D) trees.


Out of the cold and fog-gy night came the Brit-ish ship The Hood
And ever' British sea-man he knew and un-der-stood
They had to sink the Bis-marck the ter-ror of the seas
Stop those guns as big as steers and those shells as big as trees.

CHORUS #1

(D) We'll find that Ger-man bat-tle-ship that's (A) mak'in' such a (D) fuss

We got-ta sink the Bis-marck 'cause the (A) world de-pends on (D) us

(G)Hit the deck a-run-nin' boys and (D) spin those guns a-round

When we find the Bis-marck we (A) got-ta cut 'er (D) down.


The Hood found the Bis-marck and on that fa-tal day
The Bis-marck start-ed fir-in' fif-teen miles a-way
We got-ta sink the Bis-marck was the bat-tle sound
But when the smoke had clear-ed a-way the might-y Hood went down.

For six long days and wear-y nights they tried to find her trail
Church-hill told peo-ple put ever' ship a-sail
'Cause some-where on that o-cean I know she's got-ta be
We got-ta sink the Bis-marck to the bot-tom of the sea.

CHORUS #1

The fog was gone the sev-enth day an' they saw the mornin' sun
Ten hours a-way from home-land the Bis-marck made it's run
The Ad-miral of the Brit-ish fleet said turn those bows a-round
We found that Ger-man Bat-tle-ship and we gon-na cut 'er down.

The Brit-ish guns were aimed and the shells were com-in' fast
The first shell hit the Bis-marck they knew she could-n't last
That might-y Ger-man bat-tle-ship is just a mem-o-ry
Sink the Bis-marck was the bat-tle cry that shook the sev-en seas.

CHORUS #2
We found that Ger-man bat-tle-ship for mak'in' such a fuss
We had to sink the Bis-marck 'cause the world de-pends on us
We hit the deck a-run-nin' and we spun those guns a-round
Yea! we found that might-y Bis-marck and we had to cut 'er down.

CHORUS #2 (Last line)
Yea! we found that might-y Bis-marck and then we cut 'er down.
