Mother, mother ocean, I have heard you call
C G
I've wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall
C Am D
You've seen it all,
G
you've seen it all
G
I've watched the men who rode you switch from sails to steam
C G
And in your belly you hold the treasures few have ever seen
C Am D G
Most of 'em dreams, most of 'em dreams
G
Yes I am a pirate, a few hundred years too late
C
The cannons don't thunder, there's nothin' to plunder
G
I'm an under-forty victim of fate
C Am D G
Arriving too late, arriving too late
G
I've done a bit of smugglin', I've run my share of grass
C G
I made enough money to buy Miami, but I pissed it away so fast
C Am D G
Never meant to last, never meant to last
G
And I have been drunk now for over two weeks
I passed out and I rallied and I sprung a few leaks
C
But I got stop wishin', got to go fishin'
G
Down to rock bottom again
C Am D G
with just a few friends, with just a few friends
