[Intro]
Dm Gm Dm
[Verse 1]
Dm Sailing on a ship, Tuscarora was her name Gm Dm We hinged her masts to avoid catching the moon Dm Captain Stormalong led us through the seas Gm Dm He was a giant of a man who stood thirty foot tall Dm He cried onward past the winds, forward past the storms Gm Dm Feat not my brothers no grave will catch our fall Dm See, I was born of the sea and raise on the shore Gm Dm Kissed by the rain and blessed by Poseidon's fork
[Interlude]
Dm
[Verse 2]
Dm Now on one fateful day smooth waters all around Gm Dm Our captain hatched a master plan Dm He'd rid the seas of that Kraken beast Gm Dm This time he vowed would be it's last stand Dm With a storm on the rise we took it by surprise Gm Dm And caught it in a massive whirlpool's web Dm Unable to retreat from it's unending defeat Gm Dm The souls of sailors rejoiced unbroken
[Interlude]
Dm
[Verse 3]
Dm Now everyone's asking what became of Stormalong Gm Dm Truth is nobody knows Dm Some legends claim to hold the final truths Gm Dm But no one knows but Davy Jones Dm Davy Jones, Davy Jones, no one knows Dm But Davy Jones, Davy Jones
