     Dm                        C 
Just sit right back and you'll hear tale, 
  Dm                C 
A tale of a fateful trip 
     Dm                C 
That started from this tropic port, 
  Bb               C     Dm    Bb C Dm - Dm 
a-board this tiny ship 


    Dm                C 
The mate was a mighty sailing man, 
    Dm                C 
the skipper brave and sure 
     Dm             C 
Five passengers set sail that day 
            Bb    C     Dm         Bb    C     Dm - Dm

The weather started getting rough, 
    Dm            C 
the tiny ship was tossed 
   Dm                         C 
If not for the courage of the fearless crew,

the minnow would be lost 
    Bb     C        Dm   Dm 
The Minnow would be lost 


    Dm                     C 
The ship set ground on the shore of this 
  Dm             C 
uncharted desert isle 
    Dm             C 
With Gilligan, the Skipper too, 
    Dm                  C 
The Millionaire and his wife 
    Dm     C 
The mo-vie star,

No phone - (no lights, no motorcars,)
