Songtext

[Intro]
| G | - | - | - |

[Verse 1]
G
 Mother, mother ocean
I have heard you call
   C
We wanted to sail upon your waters
Since I was three feet tall
G
 'Cause you've seen it all,
Am D7                  G
     you've seen it all

[Verse 2]
G
 I've watched the men who rode you
The switch from sails to steam
    C
And in your belly you hold
The treasures few have ever seen
G
 Most of 'em dreams
Am D7                  G
     Most of 'em dreams

[Verse 3]
G
 Oh, yes, I am a pirate
A few hundred years too late
    C
The cannons don't thunder
There's nothin' to plunder
I'm an underforty victim of fate
G
 Arriving too late,
Am D7             G
     arriving too late

[Verse 4]
G
 I've done a bit of smugglin'
Well i've run my share of grass
  C
I made enough money to buy Miami
But I pissed it away so fast
G
 It's never meant to last,
Am D7                        G
     it's never meant to last

[Verse 5]
Well,
G
I have been drunk now for over two weeks
I've passed out and I rallied and I sprung a few leaks
         C
But I've got to stop wishin',
I've got to go fishin'
Down to rock bottom again
G
 With just a few friends,
Am D7                  G
     just a few friends
With just a few friends,
Am D7                  G
     just a few friends
