Am                 Dm
Captain Blackbeard used to light
    Am              E
His beard on fire before a fight
F       G         Am                  E
Call me dense but that just might not be   too   bright

Pirates do the darndest things
F           G        Am

Will Dampier the buccaneer
       Am           E
Robbed every vessel he sailed near
F        G       Am                 E
Till his crew marooned him here for five   long   years
E
(And then would you believe he took up pirating again? Sheesh!)

Am             E
Like a man and like the rest
F         G            Am                E
She could cross blades with the best yet no   one   guessed

Now if the sea has caught your love
   Am                 E
If you have heard the calling of
N.C.                              E
Mermaids singing on the bluff and that's  e-nough
 E
