[C#] [Em]
[C#] [Em] I was a pirate captain on the sea my life was spent
And [C] my ship bore with [G] Fugee, men of [D] dark intent
[Em] I ravaged all the vessels that and upon the sea
[C] And gave no quarter to the crews [D] I laughed at [Em] every plea
[G] They sent three ships [Am] to find me [Em] I was taken by blockade
[C] Executioner's dock is where I hung [Bm] and there my [D] body stayed
[C] But my spirit is [Bm] not dead [G] so do not [B] say farewell
[Em] But rather look for my return for I find a rest in hell
And I was a gallant highwayman on the hills my horse did fly
[C] With my sword and brace of pistols [G] I did rob the [D] passersby
[Em]
Many a lowland merchantmen died as I bide my trade
[C] With every death and theft I [D] became a scourge of the [Em] king's highway
[G] They sent a company [Am] of soldiers who [Em] took me in a fight
[C] And the watching mob cheered lustily [D] when I hung from the scaffold high
[C] But my spirit is [G] not dead so do not [B] say farewell
[Em] But rather look for my return for I find a rest in hell
And I was a hunted outlaw my six guns spoke for me
[C] I've killed close to thirty [G] men some just to see [D] them bleed
[Em] I stopped the rails that cut the west I robbed many a train
[C] The telegraph spread news of me [G] they posted my [Em] face and name
They [G] sent a sheriff and [C] his posse who [E] ran me to [Em] the ground
[C] And the dust filled my gaping [G] mouth when I hung in that tiny town
[C] But my spirit [G] is not dead so do not [B] say farewell
[Em] But rather look for my return for [G] I find a [Em] rest in hell
And I was a famous gangster [A] wanted [Em] by the feds
[C] Because the blast of my tommy [G] gun left so [D] many dead
[Em] The paper called me the butcher that name I surely earned
[C] I own half the city [A] the other [Em] half my fern
[G] They sent the [Am] team in after me guilty the [Em] jury's vote
[C] And the priest asked God's mercy [G] as the news went into my throat
[C] But my spirit [G] is not dead so do not say [B] farewell
[Em] But rather look for my return [C] for I [Em] find a rest in hell
And I am a pirate once again stalking the seas once more
No press [C] to sail above my [G] head but hear my [D] engines roar
[Em] My cannon are now rockets my pistol an AK
But [C] I still steal those merchant ships [A] and make [Em] their owners pay
[G] They sent their [Am] navy [Em] destroyers but they haven't caught me yet
[C] And so I still hunt the waves [G] until my match is met
[C] And when that [G] match is found they'll put [F#] me down once [Em] more
And I'll rise up just as I did a thousand times before
