[Verse 1]
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
I found him lying on a broken dock
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
In a drunken sleep about four o' clock in the morning
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
One leg good, the other one wood
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
His eye patched over just like it should I woke him.
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
C Em
I said, "Excuse me sir but might you be
D Em
Of Bartholomew Robert's piracy?"
G D Em C Em
He asked what it was to me. I told him.
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
[Verse 2]
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
"I sir am an average Joe
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
E songsmith traveling to and fro
C Em
I'd like to talk to you before I go"
D Em
He said, "Me belly could use a bit of rum, you know."
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
I gave him the bottle and he turned to speak
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
His face was old his voice was weak
C G
He claimed to be the last of the crew's defeat
D Em
By a British Man Of War off Cape Lopez, he said
[Chorus]
C G
Roberts was a gentleman
D Em Em Em
Drank his tea from an old tin can
G D Em C
Never touched a bottle kept a clean ship and
Em D Em
You'd never a guessed he was a pirate
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
[Verse 3]
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
He said, "Our ship was mighty as a sloop could be
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
Over four hundred vessels plundered we
C Em
With our sacks full of biscuits we'd return to the sea
D Em
Our jolly roger blowing proud and free
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
After Roberts robbed a vessel of it's prize
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
He'd return the ship to it's captain's sorry eyes
C Em
Never questioned any man's disguise
D Em
He followed the Sabbath as he followed the sky
[Chorus]
C G
Roberts was a gentleman
D Em Em Em
Drank his tea from an old tin can
G D Em C
Never touched a bottle kept a clean ship and
Em D Em
You'd never a guessed he was a pirate
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
[Verse 4]
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
I remember the day clear in me mind
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
We were scrubbing the hull for the very last time
C Em
When a British Man Of War attacked from behind
D Em
We were too drunk to fight we were to drunk to mind
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
I by chance swam under a pier and
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
escaped my fate through luck and fear.
C Em
Though Robert's wasn't drunk he was just too near
D Em
The thought of his death fill me eye with tear."
[Chorus]
C G
Roberts was a gentleman
D Em Em Em
Drank his tea from an old tin can
G D Em C
Never touched a bottle kept a clean ship and
Em D Em
You'd never a guessed he was a pirate
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
[Verse 5]
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
I left the docks and headed on.
Em Em/G Gmaj9/B Em11/B Em11/D
Put the pirates words in to a song.
C Em
Roberts may be dead but his story’s not gone
D Em
It's hard to believe he was a pirate
[Chorus]
C G
Roberts was a gentleman
D Em Em Em
Drank his tea from an old tin can
G D Em C
Never touched a bottle kept a clean ship and
Em D Em
You'd never a guessed he was a pirate
