Intro
D#m G#m D#m
One night I sailed the seas of dark Thuringia
B F# C#
I thirsted for an ale, so I headed to a bar
D#m B C# F#
"Shlumphy" was the name I saw above the door
G#m D#m
G# curious smell came flowing out
B D#m
So I went inside for more

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

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

Kill for the thrill

Drink up me hearties til we've had our fill

Raise up your tankards into the sky

Pirates forever from now til we die

Fighting together with swords in our hands
