What Would Captain Picard Do Chords

   
Ok, so these are the chords to Hank Green's "What Would Captain Picard Do", that I 
figured out by ear. They might not be perfect, but test it yourself, I say.


Capo on 3th fret

 C           F C          G        Am
Stardate 42695.3 was a pretty big day for me
C            G          C
I was given my first command
       C                 G                         C
But it turned out to be more difficult then I'd planned

   C                          F          G
So I went to Riker and said "What if I fail?
G                           C            Am
What if I freeze up with a Borg on our tail?
C            G                  C
What if the choice I make is wrong?"

     C                         F         C
And Riker said to me "Wesley, give me break
       G                              Am
It's arrogant to think you'll never make a mistake
     C          G          C
But when you're in that position
     C            G                 C
You only have to ask yourself one question"

     F          G          C
Oh, what would Captain Picard do?
     F          G          C
Oh, what would Captain Picard do?

      F           G        C        G       C       
He'd ensure the safety of his ship and his crew
     F        G        C
And then complete the mission
     F        G           C
And make himself a better person
       F               G
Bring peace to the galaxy
     C     G    C
And do it for free

    C-G                         C
Oh yeah, that's what Captain Picard would do
    F-G                          C
Oh yeah, that's what Captain Picard would do

   C                   F         C
I just woke up after three centuries
        G                    Am
And my first thought was of money
 C           G          C
Not that my family was gone

           C                      F     C
But this bald guy in a jumpsuit said to me
        G              C   Am
That they'd abolished currency
C               G              C
Everything I'd worked for was gone
         F         G            C
Yeah, there was nothing to withdraw
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/h/hank_green/what_would_captain_picard_do_crd.html ]
   C                    F          G
I said to him "What do you invest in
         G                 C  Am
If you don't have big corporations?"
C              G          C
He said "We invest in ourselves"
     F              G                  C
And maybe I should try that out for myself
 
          F           G        C
Because that's what Captain Picard would do
         F           G        C 
Yeah, that's what Captain Picard would do

      F            G       C        G       C
He'd ensure the safety of his ship and his crew
      F       G         C
And then complete the mission
      F       G            C 
And make himself a better person
       F               G
Bring peace to the galaxy
          C     G   C 
And he'd do it for free

    C-G                         C
Oh yeah, that's what Captain Picard would do
    F-G                         C
Oh yeah, that's what Captain Picard would do

   F               G            C       G      C
Remember when he told us to remove the saucer section
       F                G           C        G    C
Even though we were at warp nine, there was no objection
     F                   G              C-G   C
And yeah we could have killed the Borg using Hugh 
     F                   G             C          G      C
But we agreed with the Captain it was the wrong thing to do

         F              G          C-G        C
And I'd rather follow Dixon Hill, Private Detective
        F             G            C     G       C
Than observe some outmoded and obscure prime directive

          F            G            C      G       C
And even after he was tortured for forty days and nights
     F            G            C          G         C
He told that Cardassian that there were still four lights

      F                  G               C
And yeah when you're confused and the choice is too hard
       F       G         C
Just think of Captain Picard
       F       G         C
Just think of Captain Picard

        F         G         C 
Think what would Captain Picard do?
        F         G         C
Yeah, what would Captain Picard do?

       F          G
He'd save the galaxy
          C     G    C
And he'd do it for free
        F                G
He'd protect the whole world
          C     G        C
And he'd still get the girl
          F            G
And he'd save the federation
              C        G    C
And earn the Klingon's admiration

    C-G                         C
Oh yeah, that's what Captain Picard would do
    F-G                         C
Oh yeah, that's what Captain Picard would do
