Intro
Em Am Em
One night I sailed the seas of dark Thuringia
C G D
I thirsted for an ale, so I headed to a bar
Em C D G
"Shlumphy" was the name I saw above the door
Am Em
A curious smell came flowing out
C Em
So I went inside for more
[Instrumental]

[Verse 1]
Em
I see the man called Shlumphy
Am Em
Behind the oaken bar
C G D
"Velcome to my tavern", he cries with open arms
Em
Schnitzels by the dozen
C D G
We have for you to eat
Am Em
Sausages and local beer, it's quite the gourmet treat
[Pre-Chorus]
G
Cold winds are blowing
D
The night is dark and long
C
Raise up a tankard
B
and join in our song
[Chorus]
Em
Plunder with thunder
G
Kill for the thrill
D C
Drink up me hearties til we've had our fill
Em G
Raise up your tankard into the sky
D C
Pirates forever from now til we die
Am Em
Fighting together with swords in our hands
G D
Stealing their wenches and scouring the lands
Em
Plunder with thunder
G
Kill for the thrill
D C
Drink up me hearties til we've had our fill
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Em Am Em
I try to fill my tankard with a pint of that old spice
C
"No" he said, "you must pay up
G D
The drinks come at a price"
Em
So of course I did
C D G
What's natural to me
Am Em
I took my flintlock out
C Em
and shot him through the knees
G
We drank the tavern dry
D
Devoured all the meats
C
We kidnapped his ugly wife
B
and took off through the streets
[Chorus]
Em
Plunder with thunder
G
Kill for the thrill
D C
Drink up me hearties til we've had our fill
Em G
Raise up your tankard into the sky
D C
Pirates forever from now til we die
Am Em
Fighting together with swords in our hands
G D
Stealing their wenches and scouring the lands
Em
Plunder with thunder
G
Kill for the thrill
D C
Drink up me hearties til we've had our fill
[Solo]
Am Em G D C Em G D C Am Em G D Em G D C Am Am
[Chorus]
Em
Plunder with thunder
G
Kill for the thrill
D C
Drink up me hearties til we've had our fill
Em G
Raise up your tankards into the sky
D C
Pirates forever from now til we die
Am Em
Fighting together with swords in our hands
G D
Stealing their wenches and scouring the lands

Plunder with thunder

Drink up me hearties til we've had our fill
