Tom: Am
Dm F G Am
Many years ago, when I was young I went to sea
Dm F G Am
To seek for gold and glory and fulfill my destiny
Dm F G Am
But all I gained for working hard were promises and scorn
Dm F G Am
Rotten food, diluted grog, and clothing weatherworn
Dm F G Am
Adventure wealth and glory though was never to be seen
Dm F G Am
I enlisted on a vessel with a captain oh so mean
Dm F G Am
But for a simple sailor who badly treated be
Dm F G Am
There's always opportunity of making mutiny
[Chorus]
Dm F
Prepare yourself to fight!
G Am Dm
Come with us unite, draw forth your rapier
F G Am
And powder, set sail with us tonight!
Dm F G Am
Because you're free with us to sea
Dm F
Combat all injustice
G Am
Put an end to slavery
[Verse]
Dm F G Am
And you who are a miner and been for all your days
Dm F G Am
Helpless you are standing there when your masters underpay
Dm F G Am
Bailiffs are so greedy and deceiving all the serfs
Dm F G Am
So listen up and realize, you better lives deserve
Dm F G Am
And meanwhile men of noble birth, they dwell in great abound
Dm F G Am
The rest of us must struggle in starvation that surround
Dm F G Am
Detractors are just what they are, malevolent pigs!
Dm F G Am
They took of me my everything, in poverty I'm bound!
[Chorus]
Dm F
Prepare yourself to fight!
G Am Dm
Come with us unite, draw forth your rapier
F G Am
And powder, set sail with us tonight!
Dm F G Am
Because you're free with us to sea
Dm F
Combat all injustice
G Am
Put an end to slavery
[Verse]
Dm F G Am
Little maid at the manor, she thought that all was well
Dm F G Am
Age of thirteen, free of men, and lovely like a spell
Dm F G Am
And just when she had found her love in a kind and bonny lad
Dm F G Am
Her whole world was turned upside down and good thing turned to bad
Dm F G Am
It was because of the wicked Count, an old disgusting man
Dm F G Am
A sadist fuck, so cold and cruel, a terrible tyrant
Dm F G Am
When he laid eye on the little maid he laugh and then he said
Dm F G Am
I need this girl to punish her then take her to me bed
[Chorus]
Dm F
Prepare yourself to fight!
G Am Dm
Come with us unite, draw forth your rapier
F G Am
And powder, set sail with us tonight!
Dm F G Am
Because you're free with us to sea
Dm F
Combat all injustice
G Am
Put an end to slavery
Dm F
Prepare yourself to fight!
G Am Dm
Come with us unite, draw forth your rapier
F G Am
And powder, set sail with us tonight!
Dm F G Am
Because you're free with us to sea
Dm F
Combat all injustice
G Am
Put an end to slavery
