VERSE 1:
G
This water is too salty
    G
For me to even drink
    G
I'd rather walk the dreaded plank
     G
Than stay another week
         C
But it's you, my love
D                G
You're my land, ahoy!

        G
And I'm sick of being beaten
    G
And whipped and lashed to death
  G
I want one night with no gang rape
    G
But I won't hold my breath
         C
But it's you, my love
D                G
You're my land, ahoy!
              D
And you're my boy

CHORUS:
G
Yo ho, Sebastian!
G        Bm   Em
Let's go far away
Bm                  D                G
Somewhere where the captain won't be mad
G
Yo ho, Sebastian!
  G     Bm       Em
I wanna love you good
    Bm              D                 G
And we deserve much better than we've had

VERSE 2:
     G
They say they're gonna kill me
     G
If I look at you once more
     G
They spinned my hammock yesterday
   C          D      G
So I'll sleep on the floor
         C
I'd be under the sea
D                G    ( C7M )
But you hold me above

         G                       ( Bm )
And they put glass in my sandals
      G                        ( Bm )
So my feet would bleed all day
    G                        ( Bm )
And they forced me to wear them
        C           D        G
Or they said they'd make you pay
       C
I'd be under the sea
D                G
But you hold me above
                 D7
You're the man I love!

CHORUS:
G
Yo ho, Sebastian!
G        Bm   Em
Let's go far away
Bm                  D                G
Somewhere where the captain won't be mad
G
Yo ho, Sebastian!
  G     Bm       Em
I wanna love you good
    Bm              D                 G
And we deserve much better than we've had

VERSE 3:
    G
The captain found about us
    G
And ordered them to throw
G
Us both overboard tonight
  C      D       G
Together we will go
        C
But I'm yours, you know
D                          G    ( C ) ( D )
And I'll love you still in hell

      G
And I hope they didn't tie up
     G
Your hands as tight as mine
     G
I'll see you on the bed of
          C      D        G
This blue ocean, babe sometime
        C
But I'm yours, you know
D                          G
And I'll love you still in hell
        D7  ( D )
Then we fell
And I'm singin'

CHORUS:
G
Yo ho, Sebastian!
G        Bm   Em
Let's go far away
Bm                  D                G
Somewhere where the captain won't be mad
G
Yo ho, Sebastian!
  G     Bm       Em
I wanna love you good
    Bm              D                 G
And we deserve much better than we've had
