[Verse 1]
[Em]And so it began,
The story how Elzevir would look
after John as his own son,
And [Am]the smugglers betrayed
on Moonfleet Bay
by [Em]Maskew looking [D]now at Elzevir's [Em]gun

[Verse 2]
Then [G]a shot rang out in
[D]the morning light,
[Em]Maskew fell, a [B]hole [Em]between his [B]eyes,
But it was [Em]his own men who
[Am]brought him down,
and they [B]also got poor [Em]John - oh,
they [D]also shot poor John
[Em]

[Verse 3]
[C]Oh, [G]it's a dan[D]gerous wor[Em]ld boys,
[C]Oh, [G]with the[D] smuggling cre[Em]w,
[C]Oh, [G]it's a d[D]angerous lif[Em]e boys,
When you're [D]running from
the Reven[Em]ue,
When you're [D]run[C]ning [D]from
the Reven[Em]ue

[Verse 4]
[Em]
And so to escape it came now for
Elzevir to pick up the boy,
[D]and carry him [Em]away,
For he [Am]could not walk with
a bullet in the leg,
and they [Em]made for the safety
of [D]the Purbeck cave
[Em]

[Verse 5]
T'was [G]there that John
would [D]read one night,
The [Em]words in the locket by [B]candlelight,
For [Em]the Bible verses [Am]held the key
[B]to Blackbeard's hidden [Em]treasure,
at the [D]bottom of a Castle well
[Em]

[Verse 6]
[C]Oh, [G]it's a dan[D]gerous wor[Em]ld boys,
[C]Oh, [G]in a s[D]muggler's lif[Em]e,
[C]Oh, [G]in the Day[D]s of our Age[Em] boys,
That's where [D]the secret [Em]of t[D]he Treasure lies,[Em]
[C][G][D][Em]
[C][G][D][Em][C][G][D][Em]
[D][Em]
That's where [D]the secret of the Treasure [Em]lies.

Oh we're [D]going to be

[Verse 7]
rich boys,
The [A]treasure we will find,
