Intro:GCDCD}x2GG/F#CD(x2)GG/F#CDGShe went down last October in a pouring driving rain.AmCDThe skipper, he'd been drinking and the Mate, he felt no pain.GG/F#CGToo close to Three Mile Rock, and she was dealt her mortal blow,AmDAnd the Mary Ellen Carter settled low.GG/F#CGThere was just us five aboard her when she finally was awash.AmCDWe'd worked like hell to save her, all heedless of the cost.GG/F#CGAnd the groan she gave as she went down, it caused us to proclaimAmD(GG/F#CDsus4) x2 That the Mary Ellen Carter would rise again.GG/F#CD(x2)GG/F#CGWell, the owners wrote her off; not a nickel would they spend.AmCDShe gave twenty years of service, boys, then met her sorry end.GG/F#CGBut insurance paid the loss to them so they let her rest below.AmDThen they laughed at us and said we had to go.GG/F#CGBut we talked of her all winter, some days around the clock,AmCDShe's worth a quarter million, afloat and at the dock.GG/F#CGAnd with every jar that hit the bar, we swore we would remainAmDG(x2) And make the Mary Ellen Carter rise again.AmDGG/F#EmRise again, rise again,CGDthat her name not be lost to the knowledge of men.GG/F#CDGThose who loved her best and was with her ‘till the endAmDGWill make the Mary Ellen Carter rise again.GG/F#CD(x2) All spring, now, we've been with her on a barge lent by a friend. Three dives a day in hard hat suit and twice I've had the bends. Thank God it's only sixty feet and the currents here are slow Or I'd never have the strength to go below. But we've patched her rents, stopped her vents, dogged hatch and porthole down. Put cables to her, 'fore and aft and birded her around. Tomorrow, noon, we hit the air and then take up the strain. And watch the Mary Ellen Carter rise again. Chorus Repeat Intro For we couldn't leave her there, you see, to crumble into scale. She'd saved our lives so many times, living through the gale And the laughing, drunken rats who left her to a sorry grave They won't be laughing in another day And you, to whom adversity has dealt the final blow With smiling bastards lying to you everywhere you go Turn to, and put out all your strength of arm and heart and brain And like the Mary Ellen Carter, rise again. Rise again, rise again Though your heart it be broken And life about to end No matter what you've lost, be it a home, a love, a friend. Like the Mary Ellen Carter, rise again. Repeat Last Chorus Outro:GCDCD}x2G
