Intro  Fm   F   F#   F   Eb   Fm  Eb  
FmShiver my timbers, Ebshiver my Fsoul
Yo Eboh heave Fmho
There are men whose hearts are as Abblack as Fcoal
Yo Eboh heave Fho
And they Bbmsailed their ship cross the Dbocean blue
A Ebblood-thirsty captain and a Bbmcut-throat crew
It's as dark a tale as was Dbever told
Of the Eblust for treasure and the Clove of gold
F#mShiver my timbers, Eshiver my F#msides
Yo Eoh heave F#mho
There are hungers as strong as the Ewind and F#mtides
Yo Eoh heave F#mho
And those Bbuccaneers drowned their Dsins in rum
The Edevil himself would have to Bcall them scum
Every man aboard would have Dkilled his mate
For a Ebag of guineas or a Dbpiece of eight
A piece of eight
A piece of eight
Five, six, seven, eight
F#mHulla wacka ulla wacka Dbsomething not F#mright
Many wicked icky things gonna Dbhappen toF#mnight
F#mHulla wacka ulla wacka Asailor man Dbeware
When de Dbmoney in the ground dere's murder in de air
Murder in de air
One more Ctime now
GmShiver my timbers, Dmshiver my Gmbones
Yo Foh heave Gmho
There are secrets that sleep with old FDavy JoGmnes
Yo Foh heave Gmho
When the Cmainsail's set and the Ebanchor's weighed
There's no Fturning back from any Ccourse that's laid
And when greed and villainy Ebsail the sea
You can Fbet your boots there'll be Dtreachery
Interlude  Gm   F   Gm  Gm  
GmShiver my timbers, Fshiver my Gmsails
GmDead men tell Fno Gmtales
