[Verse]
Fm
My friends I stand before you
Ab
To tell a truth most dire
Eb Db
There lurks a traitor in our midsts
C
Who has invoked the captain’s ire
Fm
He don’t deserve no mercy
Ab
We ought to shoot him with a gun
Eb Db
But I am not an evil man
C
So first lets have a little fun
[Pre-Chorus]
Fm Eb
We’ll tie that scoundrel to a rope and throw him overboard
Db
Drag him underneath the ship
C
E terrifying deadly trip
[Chorus]
Fm Db
Keelhaul that filthy landlubber
Eb Ab
Send him down to the depths below
Fm Db
Make that bastard walk the plank
Ab Eb A# G F E F (this line is only single notes)
With a bottle of rum and a yo ho ho
[Verse]
Fm
I will not say what he has done
Ab
His sins are far too grave to tell
Eb Db
It’s not my place to judge a man
C
But for them he will burn in hell
Fm
The sharks will dine upon his flesh
Ab
And Davy Jones will have his soul
Eb Db
Take his money and his hat
C
He won’t need them where he’s gonna go
[Pre-Chorus]
Fm Eb
But first lets tie him to a rope and throw him overboard
Db
Drag him underneath the ship
C
E terrifying deadly trip
[Chorus]
Fm Db
Keelhaul that filthy landlubber
Eb Ab
Send him down to the depths below
Fm Db
Make that bastard walk the plank
Ab Eb A# G F E F (this line is only single notes)
With a bottle of rum and a yo ho ho
Then play the last line again to end the song
