Verse 1
(A minor) The sky was grey and cloudy
and the wind was from the west
When we spied a battered frigate
with her tattered sail full dressed
They (D minor) signaled they had letters home,
they asked if we could take
They dropped (A minor) them in a barrel,
they left bobbing in their wake
We reefed the sails
and slowed the ship
to fish the barrel out
The old ship sailed to the distance,
then we saw her come about
The (D minor) captain watched
through his spyglass
when we heard him catch his breath
And we (A minor) saw the storm of Bruin
had become a wall of death
Turn (E major) this ship around,
me boys, (D major) turn around and run
That (E major) storm, it wants a battle,
and it's (D major) sure that we're outgunned
What (A minor) of the ship that's (C major) out there?
Do we (D major) leave her to the (E major) gale?
She's called the (A minor) Flying Dutchman,
and it's rains that fills her sails
The thunder growled by demons,
and the lightning stabbed the waves
And the Dutchman, she leapt towards us,
riding fury from the grave
Our (D minor) captain, stayed at the wheel,
the crew,
they manned the lines
And still (A minor) that ship and storm
were quickly closing in behind
Our ship would crest a giant wave
and crash to the trough below
And the crew held on to what they could,
they were damned if they let go
The (D minor) rain and sea and storm winds
crashed against our ship with wrath
And from (A minor) the deck of that cursed ship,
we could hear them laugh.
(E major) Turn this ship around,
me boys, (D major) turn around and run.
That (E major) storm, it wants a battle,
and it's (D major) sure that we're outgunned.
That (A minor) ghostly ship is hunting us,
(C major) it's (D major) bringing on the (E major) gale.
She's (A minor) called the Flying Dutchman,
and it's race that fills her sails.
That was when we sighted land,
it became a race with time
We believed at Santa Marta,
the Dutchman closing in behind
Risk (D minor) it all that Captain held,
it's the only chance we've got
Salva (A minor) tion if we make it,
and our souls if we get caught
The storm was all around us
and the Dutchmen caught our wind
The beast nearly capsized us
and we watched our strong ass bend
We were (D minor) almost to the harbor,
we could see the natural break
And (A minor) each man wheeled her forward
for they knew what was at stake
(E major) Turn the ship around me boys,
(D major) turn around and run
That (E major) storm, it wants a battle,
and it's (D major) sure that we're outgunned
That (A minor) ghostly ship is hunting us,
(C major) it's (D major) bringing on the (E major) gale
She's called the (A minor) Flying Dutchman,
and it's rage that builds her sails
Once we charged into that harbor,
the Flying Dutchman heaved away
And we heard their bitter screams,
for the devil lost his prey
Once (D major) we (D minor) made it safely
to the leeward of the bay,
We cracked (A minor) that barrel open
to see what those letters say.
There must have been a hundred
and that's when we realized
These moldy parchments
were addressed
to those who'd long since died.
If you (D minor) see a battered frig
underneath a gray and stormy sky,
Give (A minor) way and watch behind you
or you'll hear your captain cry
Turn (E major) the ship around me boys,
(D major) turn around and run
That (E major) storm, it wants a battle
and it's (D major) sure that we're outgunned
That (E major) ghostly (A minor) ship is (C major) hunting us,
it's (D major) bringing on the (E major) gale
She's (A minor) called the Flying Dutchman
and it's rage that fills her sails
