D Dsus4 D (quarter rest for bass) D Dsus4 D (rest)
[Chorus]
D Dsus4 D A My name is Captain Kidd as I sailed, as I sailed D Dsus4 D A Oh my name is Captain Kidd as I sailed G D A My name is Captain Kidd and God's laws I did forbid G A D Dsus4 D And most wickedly I did as I sailed
[Verse 1]
D Dsus4 D A My father taught me well to shun the gates of hell D Dsus4 D A But against him I rebelled as I sailed D Dsus4 D A He shoved a Bible in my hand but I left it in the sand D Dsus4 D A And I pulled away from land as I sailed
[Chorus]
D Dsus4 D A My name is Captain Kidd as I sailed, as I sailed D Dsus4 D A Oh my name is Captain Kidd as I sailed G D A My name is Captain Kidd and God's laws I did forbid G A D Dsus4 D And most wickedly I did as I sailed
[Verse 2]
D Dsus4 D A I murdered William Moore and I left him in his gore D Dsus4 D A Twenty leagues away from shore as I sailed D Dsus4 D A And being crueler still, the gunner I did kill D Dsus4 A All his precious blood did spill as I sailed
[Chorus]
D Dsus4 D A My name is Captain Kidd as I sailed, as I sailed D Dsus4 D A Oh my name is Captain Kidd as I sailed G D A My name is Captain Kidd and God's laws I did forbid G A D Dsus4 D And most wickedly I did as I sailed

[Verse 3]
D Dsus4 D A I was sick and nigh to death and I vowed at every breath D Dsus4 D A Oh to walk in wisdom's path as I sailed D Dsus4 D A But my repentance lasted not my vows I soon forgot D Dsus4 D A Oh damnation is my lot as I sailed
[Chorus]
D Dsus4 D A My name is Captain Kidd as I sailed, as I sailed D Dsus4 D A Oh my name is Captain Kidd as I sailed G D A My name is Captain Kidd and God's laws I did forbid G A D Dsus4 D And most wickedly I did as I sailed
[Verse 4]
D Dsus4 D A To the execution dock lay my head upon the block D Dsus4 D A Laws no more I'll mock as I sail D Dsus4 D A So take warning here and heed to shun bad company D Dsus4 D A Or you'll wind up just like me as I sailed
[Chorus]
D Dsus4 D A My name is Captain Kidd as I sailed, as I sailed D Dsus4 D A Oh my name is Captain Kidd as I sailed G D A My name is Captain Kidd and God's laws I did forbid G A D Dsus4 D And most wickedly I did as I sailed G A D Dsus4 D And most wickedly I did as I sailed
