As a [G] boy I knew someday I'd be a [D] sailor, I just knew [G] that I [A] belonged at [Em] sea.
[D]
Saw those [G] ships coming [A] to the harbor, [D] a [Em] pirate's life [G] [A] seemed [D] like fun to [Em] me.
Six months [G] out over up [Bm] sea with a wet [Em] deck, an accident [G] cost [D] me my right eye.
[Em] I was [G] back on duty [Bm] in an [Em] hour, the captain [G] asked, why do you [A] wear a [D] smile?
Piece by piece [G] I'm going [A] on to [G] heaven, [D] piece by piece [G] I'm gonna [D] be [G] made [D] whole.
[G] [D] Piece by [G] piece I'm going on to heaven, piece by piece just waiting for [D] my soul.
With a patch, [G] I found that I was just [D] fine, though it seems [G] the rest of me must wait.
I [D] will sail [G] and fight [A] across the South [D] Seas, but keep [Em] one eye [G] on [D] heaven's pearly [Em] gates.
Then one [G] day, while taking over [Bm] [Em] visions, my mind [G] drifted for just a [D] little [Em] while.

smile?

Piece by piece [G] I'm going [A] on to heaven, [D] piece by piece [Em] just waiting [D] for my soul.
A peg leg and a patch, [G] I worked out [A] in the [G] galley, [D] and held my own [G] on the ship and [A] on the [G] shore.
I [D] know I [G] have nothing [A] left to fear here, [D] cause [Em] I've got [G] one [D] foot in heaven's [Em] door.
Some years [G] later, in the heat [Bm] of [Em] battle, off the [G] coast of [D] St.
[Em] Vincent's Isle,
I picked up a [G] cannonball, left me with [Bm] just one [Em] hand, the captain [G] asked, why do you [A] wear a smile?

[D]
When death comes, [G] I will [A] not be frightened, [D]
cause [Em] I've got [G] a [D] hand to help me in.
[Em]
Even though [G] I'm half the [Bm] man I once [Em] was, I say to [G] you, it [D] was all worthwhile.
[Em]
After all, [G] it got me halfway [Bm] to [Em] heaven, and that's the [G] reason I still [A] wear a smile.
