Black And Gold

Em                                
Once you were all sea-folk and you
  Am              Em
 sailed upon the seas
Em                                
You crossed the roaring ocean with
     Am            B
 the devil at your heels
Em                                
Your time has come again now, I'll
          Am               Em
 tell you how this will unfold
Em                          
I wanna see the western ocean 
  Am                  B
painted black and gold

(Chorus)
G  D/Fis         Em
Welcome to the seaside
G  D/Fis      Em
It's been occupied
G  D/Fis         Em
Burrow to the bottom
     Am                   B
And behold! -The mother lode
              Em
Of black and gold

Em                                
Yes, once you were all sea-wolves,
          Am              Em
 proudest on the western seas
Em                             Am
These days you linger in the 
              B
shade of taller trees
Em                              
But the devil has a weak spot for 
   Am              Em
wounded and the poor
Em                                
For the hungry and the crafty and 
     Am              B
the wicked and the small

Em                              
Keep that fire burning, keep a 
Am              Em
keen eye on the count
     Em                 
The bounty of the ocean, 
     Am          B
astronomical amounts!
    Em                             
You all know where it's coming 
      Am                   Em
from, you all know where it's going
     Em                         Am
Yes, in the end I always had a cut
            B
 of every coin
