Lirik & Kunci Gitar A Pirate Looks At Forty
[Verse 1]
G
Mother, mother ocean, I have heard you call
C G
Wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall
Am7 Bm7 Am7 G
You've seen it all, you've seen it all
[Verse 2]
G
Watch the men who rode you, switch from sails to steam
C G
And in your belly you hold the treasure that few have ever seen
Am7 Bm7 Am7 G
Most of them dreams, most of them dreams
[Verse 3]
G
Yes, I am a pirate, two hundred years too late
C G
The cannons don't thunder, there's nothin' to plunder, I'm an over forty victim of fate
Am7 Bm7 Am7 G
Arriving too late, arriving too late
[Verse 4]
G
I've done a bit of smugglin' and I've run my share of grass
C G
I made enough money to buy Miami but I pissed it away so fast
Am7 Bm7 Am7 G
Never meant to last, never meant to last
[Verse 5]
G
I have been drunk now for over two weeks
G
I passed out and I rallied and I sprung a few leaks
C G
But I've got to stop wishin', got to go fishin', I'm down to rock bottom again
