Intro

Verse 1

Searching for the best break

The black forties could afford them

Came these ever-proud world-renowned

Rowdy, roving men

With a firmness and a purpose

That so many did dismiss

Sailed these huddled human ballasts on their

stinking coffin ships

Chorus

From the prison of their lonely hearts

They labored long and hard

Working 18 hour days for the B.A.C.

Verse 2

play like verse 1

Intelligent, repectable

But made of modest means

With an independent spirit,

So full of hopes and dreams

Opportunity denied them in a

Doomed and starving land

Came these openhearted kindly spirits

Of a truly threatened man

Chorus

play like other chorus

From the prison of their lonely hearts

They labored long and hard

Working 18 hour days for the B.A.C.

Verse 3

mostly just bass, but the guitar plays in the spots where I put he chords

Searching for the best break

The black forties could afford them

Came these ever-proud world-renowned

Rowdy, roving men

With a firmness and a purpose

That so many did dismiss

Sailed these huddled human ballasts on their

stinking coffin ships

Chorus

play like other choruses

From the prison of their lonely hearts

They labored long and hard

Working 18 hour days for the B.A.C

That's it. There is actally a line after "They labored long and hard" but I

couldn't hear what they were saying in the song and all the lyrics that I found

didn't have it. Anyway, if you figure it out let me know. Later.
