Em              D        
 Last night, I saw it there, 
  C                   D   Em 
Shining in the dark again, 
                        D       C 
The light that all men seem to fear, 
                D            G      D       C 
They say that sailors were drowning in the bay, 
     Am 
And people kept away, 
         F                                  Em 
Waiting for the riches that a wreck would bring, 
                  D 
When the morning comes, 
     C                 D                Em 
And now the ghost of Blackbeard walks again, 
    C                  D                  Em 
To haunt the ones who would not hear the pain 

 D    C  D Em 
Help me,  
 D    C  D Em 
Help me... 

           D               C                           D  Em 
I took the old path down, down to where the graveyard lay, 
              D              C 
The place I knew when I was young, 
                D            G           D     C 
They say that Blackbeard had hidden precious stones, 
  Am 
Amongst the ancient bones, 
      F                              Em 
So I set off to the darkness down below, 
                D 
By the candle glow, 
        C               D             Em 
T'was then I heard the voices, saw a light, 
      C             D             Em 
And started on the journey of my life...
