[C] There was a pirate captain, a ruthless man was he
Dreadly man from London, from the [G] coast of Barbary
[C] He raided all the trading [Em] routes from Dublin [G] to Bovee
[C] And every time he'd [G] board a ship his crew would [C] hear him say
Fetch me over Dublin, bring it to me now
I'll wear it in the rear as they [G] fire across the bow
[Am] Fetch me over [G] Dublin, it's got the luck we need for
Even if they shoot me down they'll never [C] see me bleed
For twenty years he pillaged across the seven seas
The men [Em] showed up and sailed her to [G] their [Dm] knees
The king [C] dispatched a [Em] frigate
[C] And when old Red [G] conferred the news he smiled [C] and clapped his hands
Fetch me over Dublin, bring it to me now
I'll wear it in the rig and as [G] fire across the bow
[Dm] Fetch me over [Em] Dublin, it's got the [G] luck we need [C] for
Even [Em] if they shoot me down they'll never [C] see me bleed
The captain of the frigate, a clever man was he
Surprised the pirate was sleeping [Am] and declared a [G] victory
[Dm] As he [C] loaded up [Em]
[G] [C] the pirates caught [G] him broadside
And he heard [C] as he went down
Fetch me over Dublin, bring it to me now
I'll wear it in the rig and as [Am] they fire [G] across the [C] bow
Fetch me over [Em] Dublin, it's got the luck we need for
Even if they shoot me down they'll never see [C] me bleed
The Germans sent a warship to hunt the pirates down
[G] [F] The captain cried [C] and [Em] banded ship he crewed they [G] swam to shore
They all cried, FATALITY!
When they [Em] heard old [C] Red conferred
Fetch me over Dublin, bring it to me now
[Em] I'll wear it in the rig and as they fire across the bow
[F] Fetch me [C] over Dublin, it's got [G] the luck we need for
Even if they shoot me down they'll never [C] see me bleed
Now Queen Isabella, she stepped into the fray
She armed her whole batch and [G] straight away
[C] A hundred guns to [Em] one, old ship was torn [G] in two
[Em] And high up in the crow's nest he [G] began his song [C] anew
He said, Fetch me old brown trousers, bring them to me now
[F] I'll [C] wear them [Am] everywhere across [G] our bow
I don't [F] get it, Fetch me old brown [Gm] trousers
[C] I fear [G] we may be [C] hit with fire
[G] Even if they shoot me [Em] now they'll never see me bleed
[C] Fetch me over Dublin, bring it to me now
I'll wear it in the rig and as they [G] fire across the bow
