The Captain's There with You [Neuenburg Konfi 2014]

VERSE 1
Amaj7                                G  
Got in this game all by yourself.  
Amaj7                                                    G                                               A                                      
And you think the reason's that you're simply so much better than the rest
Amaj7                                    G
Your delusions are so strong
Amaj7                                                G                                                 Bb                             
That you think the team is hopeless unless you’re prepared to play along

CHORUS
Bb         C     Bb          C     Bb                      C                       G  
 Just be glad,   just be glad, be so glad the captain holds to you

VERSE 2
Amaj7                              G
 There's a leader to this team
Amaj7                                          G                                   A
And in spite of what you think it is not you -  that's just a dream
Amaj7                                        G
Your captain knows the proper plays
Amaj7                                             G                                                  Bb
And that's not the same as simply just having you just get your own way
