Lyrics for a Pirate Song I Wrote

CHORUS

I broke free in a mutinee,

and stole me very own ship,

But don't be callin' me no traitor,

Or you'll be takin' a dip!

CHORUS

And you know I’m a pirate

Cause I got a treasure chest

Cause we drank up all the rum

And we buried all the rest

CHORUS

I know I’m a pirate!

Cause I’ve only got one eye

And I’ll always be a pirate

Til the day that I die, yarr!

CHORUS

And of course I’m a pirate

Cause even if I did get caught

They’d never find my booty

Even though X marks the spot

CHORUS

His majesty’s royal navy’s

Got a price on my head

But they don’t know these winds like I do

And I won’t be the first one dead

CHORUS

Well, they call me a pirate

Cause I live out on the waves

And they think that I’m a scoundrel

But I’ll never be a slave

Yo ho, yo ho

Yo ho and a bottle of a rum!

…Dead men tell no tales

E minor, C, Eminor D, E minor C E minor G

Em C Em Am
