[Intro] F Bb C F F Bb C F [Verse 1]
  F                              Bb      C   F
I wish I was a pirate ship wreck down in Mexico
Where the oceans turn to silver
        Bb      C       F
And the beaches turn to gold

                           Bb  C        F
I'd make love to some señorita in that town

                                Bb       C       F
Then I'd get on my boat and I'd sail the ocean round
[Interlude] F Bb C F [Verse 2]
                                Bb       C    F
I wish I was a pirate out there under my own flag

                             Bb     C       F
Running for no reason and no reason to turn back

                           Bb       C         F
Salt and rum on my tongue, sails tattered and torn

                              Bb      C    F
Laughing in the devil's face, ridin' out a storm
[Chorus]
Gm         F        Bb
Ooooo, one of these days

      F
Gonna get off these highways
Wake up in some bay
         Gm       F     Bb
With the sunshine on my face

    C
St. Christopher on a silver chain
Say a prayer, sail away [Interlude] F Bb C F (x4) [Chorus]
Gm         F        Bb
Ooooo, one of these days

      F
Gonna get off these highways
Wake up in some bay
         Gm       F     Bb
With the sunshine on my face

    C
St. Christopher on a silver chain
Say a prayer, sail away [Verse 3]
  F                           Bb         C      F
I wish I was a pirate on some ghost ship in the night
With nothing but the stars, the moon
    Bb       C     F
And faith to be my guide

                         Bb      C      F
Steady as she goes, with my back to the wind

                                    Bb   C      F
Then in a cloud of cannon smoke I'd disappear again
F Bb C F (x2) [Ending] F Bb C F (x2)
