Verse 1
It (G major) was (F major) somewhere off (A minor) in
Africa (G major)
On a (D major) dark and stormy (C major) night (G major)
A (C major) lightning burned our (G major) sails away
No har (D major) bor was (C major) in sight (G major)
Our captain was from
Liverpool, our crew (F major) from
Forty (A minor)
Jails (G major)
Our (D major) ship was made (C major) of ebony, (G major) with
(D major) Chinese sail (C major) ing sails (G major)
Our gunners fired jade cannonballs,
from (F major) handmade guns (A minor) of gold
(G major) Our (D major) swords were made (C major) of sil (G major) ver,
our (D major) hearts black (C major) as coal (G major)
We (C major) threw the skull and cross (G major) bones,
lived on fire and fear (E minor)
We (C major) took and gave no quarter, (G major)
(D major) we were
Buccaneers (C major) (G major) (D major)
We (G major) fought with ships from many shores,
lived (F major) and (A minor) died as men (G major)
Some (D major) had seen (C major) the (G major) face of
God, (D major) been once free (C major) of sin (G major) (D major) (C major) (G major)
We (C major) flew the skull and cross (G major) bones,
lived on fire and fear
(E minor) We (C major) took and gave no quarter, (G major)
we (D major) were buccaneers, oooo (C major) h (G major) (D major) (G major)
God knows our lives were lonely,
with rare (F major) and (A minor) simple song (G major) s
The (D major) sharks and (C major) other demon
(G major) s would (D major) have us be (C major) for long (G major)
And even when we thought of love,
(F major) we knew it could not (A minor) be (G major)
The (D major) best that we (C major) could hope (G major)
for was a (D major) burial (C major) at sea (G major)
And it was (F major) somewhere off (A minor) of
Africa, (G major) on a (D major) dark and a (C major) stormy night
(G major) The (C major) lightning burned our (G major) sails away,
no harbor (D major) was (C major) in sight (G major) (D major) (C major) (G major)
We (C major) threw the skull and cross (G major) bones,
lived on fire and fear
(E minor) We (C major) took and gave no quarter, (G major)
(D major) we were
Buccaneers
We (G major) (C major) threw the skull and cross (G major) bones,
lived on fire and fear
(E minor) We (C major) took and gave no quarter, (G major)
(D major) we were
Buccaneers (C major)
you
We were buccaneers
