CAPO II
[Verse 1]
Just Bmsit right back and you'll Ahear tale, A Bmtale of a fateful Atrip
That Bmstarted from this Atropic port, a-Gboard this Atiny Bmship
The mCmate was a mighty Bbsailin' man, the Cmskipper brave and Bbsure
Five Cmpassengers set Bbsail that day for a Abthree Bbhour Cmtour, A Abthree Bbhour Cmtour
[Verse 2]
The C#mweather started Bgetting rough, the C#mtiny ship was Btossed
If C#mnot for the courage of the Bfearless crew, the Aminnow Bwould be C#mlost
The AMinnow Bwould be C#mlost
[Interlude]
The Dmship set ground on the Cshore of this Dmuncharted desert Cisle
With DmGilligan, the CSkipper Too, The DmMillionaire and his Cwife
The Dmmo-vie Cstar, The Dmprofessor and CMary Ann, DHere on CGilligan's DIsle
[Verse 4]
So, Bmthis is a tale of our Acastaways, they're Bmhere for a long, long Atime
They'll Bmhave to make the Abest of things, Git's an Auphill Bmclimb
The Cmfirst mate and his Bbskipper too will Cmdo their very Bbbest
To Cmmake the others Bbcomfortable in the Abtropic Bbisland Cmnest
No C#mphone - no lights, no Bmotorcars, not a C#msingle lux - Bury
Just like C#mRobinson BCrusoe, it's pArimitive Bas can C#mbe
[Verse 5]
So Dmjoin us here each Cweek my friend, You're Dmsure to get a Csmile
From Dmseven stranded Ccastaways, DHere on CGilligan's DIsle
