(slight E/F for pirate riff)

E                                        F#m              E
In days of old when ships were bold just like the men who sailed them
E                                   F#m              E
And if they showed us disrespect we tied them up and flailed them
C#m                                        G#m
Often in the low degree and often men of steel
C#m                                                             B
They’d make you walk the plank alone or haul you round the keel

[Chorus]
E               C#m
Hoist the Jolly Roger x3
F#                                                             A                                B
It’s your money that we want and your money we shall have

[Whistle verse]

[Chorus]
E               C#m
Hoist the Jolly Roger x3
F#                                                             A                                B
It’s your money that we want and your money we shall have

[Key change]

A                                 Bm                A
Of all the pirates on the sea the worst of them was Blackbeard
A                               Bm               A
So damnable a face from hell he was the one they most feared
F#m                                                  C#m
Any man who sailed with him was taking quite a chance
F#m                                                            E
He’d hang them from the gallows just to see if they could dance

[Chorus]

A               F#m
Hoist the Jolly Roger x 3
B                                                              D                                 E
It’s your money that we want and your money we shall have
