[Verse]
D C G G C D Countless years ago while lost in barren seas D C G G C D There whispered murmurs of a bloody mutiny D C G G C D We took up arms and slain the officers of rank D C G G C Am And with swords drawn made the captain walk the plank
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Em And as he fell down to the depths G D He swore a deadly curse Am Em "As sure as hell's my final fate G D You'll all soon die, or worse" Am Em Now as we stand before the gallows G D Waiting for the end Am Em C D Em I'll say these final words my friend
[Chorus]
C G D At sunrise we'll all dance the hempen jig Em C G D So raise up your pint of rum and take another swig Em C G D The curse of Captain Morgan has led us to this fate Em C G D So have no fear, and don't look back, the afterlife awaits
[Interlude]
Am Am G G Am Am G G D
[Verse]
D C G G C D We returned to port with sorrow in our chests D C G G C D An evil shadow followed us on every quest D C G G C D Never to feel joy again was our fate D C G G C Am Only misery and death, fear and burning hate
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Em We broke the law, betrayed the code G D Now time is running out Am Em An unforgivable offence G D Of that there is no doubt Am Em Now as we stand before the gallows G D Waiting for the end Am C C D Em I'll say these final words my friend
[Chorus]
C G D At sunrise we'll all dance the hempen jig Em C G D So raise up your pint of rum and take another swig Em C G D The curse of Captain Morgan has led us to this fate Em C G D So have no fear, and don't look back, the afterlife awaits

Strum once each chord
D C Many years have passed now F C Yet the curse still lives on D Am And now we rot in a black prison cell F Em Waiting for our true calling in hell
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Em But for the lives we leave behind G D Don't shed a tear, don't cry Am Em The only way to break this curse G D Is for us all to die Am Em Now as we stand before the gallows G D Waiting for the end Am Em I'll say these final words my friend
