[Intro]
[Dm]
[Verse]
Oh, the Thresher, the [F]finest a[C]tomic [Am]ship
That ever dived for the [G]sea[C]
Each man on board[Bm] was a volun[Em]teer
Was [F]there 'cause he [Em]chose there to [D]be

[Chorus]
Every [F]man-jack on board was a [C]hero
Every [F]man-jack on board there was [C]brave
Every [F]man-jack on [Em]board was a [Dm]hero
Each [F]man risked a [Em]watery [D]grave[Dm]

[Verse]
Oh, their wives and their [F]sweethearts [C]came down to [Am]port
Their last fond goodbyes there to [G]say[C]
Each tried her best to be [Bm]tearless and [Em]brave[F]
They promised to [Em]meet there some [D]day

[Chorus]
Every [F]man-jack on board was a [C]hero
Every [F]man-jack on board there was [C]brave
Every [F]man-jack on [Em]board was a [Dm]hero
Each [F]man risked a [Em]watery [D]grave[Dm]

[Verse]
Then "Dive" said the [F]Captain, and [C]we held our [Am]breath
A sound like she'd broken in [G]two[C]
That was the last we [Bm]ever heard of [Em]her[F]
Last word we [Em]had of her [D]crew

[Chorus]
Every [F]man-jack on board was a [C]hero
Every [F]man-jack on board there was [C]brave
Every [F]man-jack on [Em]board was a [Dm]hero
Each [F]man risked a [Em]watery [D]grave[Dm]

[Verse]
Oh, the Thresher, yes, [F]now her re[C]actor is [Am]still
But very good company she [G]keeps[C]
Men from the Lexington, [Bm]Hornet, and the [Em]Wasp[F]
Are down there [Em]with her in the [D]deep

[Chorus]
Every [F]man-jack on board was a [C]hero
Every [F]man-jack on board there was [C]brave
Every [F]man-jack on [Em]board was a [Dm]hero
Each [F]man risked a [Em]watery [D]grave [Dm]
