[Verse 1]
G
 Mother, mother ocean,
I have heard you call
C                                                      G
Wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall
               Am7
You've seen it all,
G/B Am7            G
    you've seen it all

[Verse 2]
G
 Watched the men who rode you switch from sails to steam
    C
And in your belly,
                                     G
you hold the treasures few have ever seen
Most of 'em dream,
Am7 G/B Am7         G
        most of 'em dream

[Verse 3]
G
Yes I am a pirate,
two hundred years too late
    C
The cannons don't thunder,
there's nothin' to plunder
                               G
I'm an overforty victim of fate
             Am7  G/B  Am7        G
Arriving too late,   arriving too late

[Verse 4]
G
I've done a bit of smugglin',
I've run my share of grass
  C
I made enough money to buy Miami,
                        G
but I pissed it away so fast
               Am7
Never meant to last,
G/B      Am7      G
   never meant to last

[Verse 5]
    G
And I have been drunk now for over two weeks
I passed out and I rallied and I sprung a few leaks
      C
But I got to stop wishin',
got to go fishin'
Down to rock bottom again
G           Am7
 Just a few friends,
G/B Am7        G
    just a few friends

[Verse 6]
G
I go for younger women,
lived with several awhile
         C
Though I ran 'em away,
they'd come back one day
                           G
Still could manage to smile
             Am7
Just takes a while,
G/B Am7          G
    just takes a while

[Verse 7]
G
 Mother, mother ocean,
after all the years I've found
   C
My occupational hazard being my occupation's just not
around
G                 Am7
 I feel like I've drowned,
G/B      Am7    G
   gonna head uptown
                 Am7
I feel like I've drowned,
G/B      Am7    G
   gonna head uptown
Am7 G/B Am7 G
