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
From the prison of their lonely hearts
They labored long and hard
Working 18 hour days for the B.A.C.
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
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.
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
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.
