Cover art for My Sad Captains lyrics by Elbow

Already one of my favourite Elbow songs and just puts me in mind of all the mates I used to hang around with, friends and family who have passed away and a life which was far less complicated, where the carnage and fall out of a broken marriage and fractured home was yet to happen. I will cry, I know, when they play this at Birmingham next Saturday but Elbow have a habit of doing that to me.
