Intro: Bb5 Bb5 Bb5 Bb5 Ab5 [x2]
After violin starts: Bb5 Bb5 Db5 Ab5
Repeat this a few times and then when there is a sort of stop just before where
the guitar comes in play F5 instead of Ab5
Then repeat the phrase a few more times
Bb5
My friends I stand before you
Db5
To tell a truth most dire
Ab5 Gb5
There lurks a traitor in our midsts
F5
Who has invoked the captain?s ire
Bb5
He don?t deserve no mercy
Db5
We ought to shoot him with a gun
Ab5 Gb5
But I am not an evil man
F5
So first lets have a little fun
Bb5 Ab5
We?ll tie that scoundrel to a rope and throw him overboard
Gb5
Drag him underneath the ship
F5
A terrifying deadly trip
Bb5 Gb5
Keelhaul that filthy landlubber
Ab5 Db5
Send him down to the depths below
Bb5 Gb5
Make that bastard walk the plank
Db5 Ab5 Eb5 C5 Bb5 A5 Bb5 (this line is only single notes)
With a bottle of rum and a yo ho ho
Bb5
I will not say what he has done
Db5
His sins are far too grave to tell
Ab5 Gb5
It?s not my place to judge a man
F5
But for them he will burn in hell
Bb5
The sharks will dine upon his flesh
Db5
And Davy Jones will have his soul
Ab5 Gb5
Take his money and his hat
F5
He won?t need them where he?s gonna go
B5 Ab5
But first lets tie him to a rope and throw him overboard
Gb5
Drag him underneath the ship
F5
A terrifying deadly trip
Bb5 Gb5
Keelhaul that filthy landlubber
Ab5 Db5
Send him down to the depths below
Bb5 Gb5
Make that bastard walk the plank
Db5 Ab5 Eb5 C5 Bb5 A5 Bb5 (this line is only single notes)
With a bottle of rum and a yo ho ho
