Вступление
G
Mother, mother ocean, I have heard you call,
CG
I wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall.
AmG
You've seen it all you’ve seen it all.
G
Watched the men who rode you switch from sails to steam
CG
And in your belly you hold a treasure that few have ever seen
AmG
Most of them dreams most of them dreams
G
Yes I am a pirate two hundred years too late
CG
The cannons don’t thunder there’s nothing to plunder
I’m an over forty victim of fate
AmG
Arriving too late arriving too late
G
I’ve done a bit of smuglin I’ve run my share of grass
CG
I made enough money to buy Miami but I pissed it away so fast
AmG
Never meant to last never meant to last
G
I have been drunk now for over two weeks I passed out
and I rallied and I sprung a few leaks
CG
But I gotta stop wishin’ gotta go fishin’ down to rock
bottom again
AmG
With just a few friends just a few friends
G | CG | GAmGG
I go for younger women lived with several a while
CG
Though I ran them away they’ll come back one day
and still can manage a smile
AmG
It just takes a while just takes a while
A Pirate Looks At Forty
G
Mother mother ocean after all the years I’ve found
CG
My occupational hazard being my occupations just not a round
AmG
I feel like I’ve drowned gonna head up town
AmG
I feel like I’ve drowned gonna head up town
