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

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

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