Am          F         C           G 
Look i'm a pirate, i'm out for a quest 
Am          F        Dm           G 
Look at my ship, its hiding in the mist 
Am          Dm                F - G - C 
I dont beg forgiveness, so dont you even try 
Am      F             Dm         G 
I am a pirate, so get use to my lies 
F             G          C          Am 
Cause i am a pirate, im out on the sea 
   F                   G 
i rape, i rob, i steal, i cut 
   F                   G 
Cut your throat, cut your hair. 
   C                   Am 
And then I leave you bleeding there. 
    G         E        Am 
And thats the way its gonna be 
 C            G              C# 
If you are a pirate from the sea 


**It is supposed to be played like an old irish folksong.**
