Herald Of Free Enterprise chords by Milow

This is the 🏷Legend of eight sisters, Herald was the famous one
  Fmaj7            C         E
It happened twenty years ago although the sea was calm
Am
It was 1987 and winter nearly gone
    Fmaj7              C        E
On that Friday running late with rolling off and rolling on

Am
Trucks and cars were sleeping door by door and side by side
    Fmaj7
Someone had to close the back door
     C            E
That day it must have slipped his mind
Am
He was fast asleep in his cabin, tired from cleaning out the hall
   Fmaj7               C       E
While passengers were eating, indulging duty-free-for-all

Fmaj7 G    C

Herald of Free Enterprise
Fmaj7 G    Am
Herald of Free Enterprise
    Fmaj7      G         C
In just ninety seconds, right down to the wire

Am
Sailing with the doors wide open so the waves kept pouring in
    Fmaj7           C       E
As they passed the Outer Mole the disaster could begin
Am
A hundred yards from the shore right outside a Belgian port
  Fmaj7                   C      E
The lights went out the ship turned around and fell to starboard
Am
Then nothing but silence, silence and the cold
Fmaj7         C       E
Herald and her sisters never fit the mold

Fmaj7 G    C

Herald of Free Enterprise
    Fmaj7      G         C
In just ninety seconds, right down to the wire

Am
Two months later she was refloated a final one-way trip exchange
     Fmaj7                C         E
Pensioned off into the Thirld World where they named her Flushing Range
Am
But in ’88 she broke in two, probably because of guilt
     Fmaj7
Pride and Spirit changed their names
       C           E
They were all doomed since they were built

This is the 🏷Legend of eight sisters, Herald was the famous one
  Fmaj7            C         E
It happened twenty years ago although the sea was calm
Am
I was just a boy then, holding daddy’s hands
Fmaj7            C        E
