Beat the quarters!
Blow the man down!

[Verse 1]
I was [G]down on my luck in a buccaneer's bar
in [C]Port Royal, Ja[D]maica (ahoy)
Not a [G]penny in my pocket
when a privateer asked
"Wanna [D]hear about a money- [C]maker? (ahoy)
You could [G]make a pretty penny
and get rich quick
if [C]you became a [D]pi rate" (ahoy)
So, he [G]poured me a slug,
and he told me all about it
In [F]case I so de[D]sired it

[Pre-chorus 1]
[Bm]"If you decide to join us
[C]Better make your mind up quick
For [Bm]Lady Fortune favours the brave
So, [D]get that double rum down your neck!"

[Chorus 1]
[G]"Drink up, drink up!
The [D]ship sails in the [C]morning
[G]Drink up, drink up!
So, [C]don't you hang a[D]round!
[G]Drink up, drink up!
The [Am]ship sails in the [C]morning
[G]Drink up, drink up!
[Bm]Let's get out of [D]town!"

[Bridge 1]
[Em]In comes the Royal Navy
[G]bursting through the [D]door
[C]They're getting new recruits
They [Em]always want some [D]more
[Em]Here comes the Royal Navy
[G]Press Gang offi[D]cer
[C]"We'd better take our leave
Un[G]less you [C]wanna be [G]poor"

[Verse 2]
Ah, with a [G]yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum,
we [C]moved on around the [D]corner (ahoy)
To an[G]other busy inn with sea dogs in
and [D]some old salty [C]sailors (ahoy)
And he [G]told me everything
about the silver and gold
and the [C]Jewels and the pearls
and [D]plunder (ahoy)
I was [G]caught between the devil
and the deep, blue sea
But it [F]sure did make me [D]wonder

[Pre-chorus 2]
[Bm]"If you decide to join us
[C]Better make your mind up quick
For [Bm]Lady Fortune favours the brave
So, [D]get that double rum down your neck!"

[Chorus 2]
[G]"Drink up, drink up!
The [D]ship sails in the [C]morning
[G]Drink up, drink up!
So, [C]don't you hang a[D]round!
[G]Drink up, drink up!
The [Am]ship sails in the [C]morning
[G]Drink up, drink up!
[Bm]Let's get out of [D]town!"

[Bridge 2]
[Em]In comes the Royal Navy
[G]crashing through the [D]door
[C]They're getting new recruits
They [Em]always want some [D]more
[Em]Here comes the Royal Navy
[G]Press Gang offi[D]cer"
[C]"I'm going to that ship
'cause [G]I don't w[C]anna be p[G]oor"

[Outro 1]
(Ah- [G]aah) Well, shiver me [C]timbers!
(Ah- [G]aah) I like the cut of your [D]jib!
(Ah- [G]aah) When booty [C]calls
(Ah- [G]aah) I want pieces of [D]eight!
(Ah- [G]aah) Splice the [C]mainbrace!
(Ah- [G]aah) Now, walk the [D]plank
(Ah- aah)
[Fade out]
