Verse 1:

Em           D
A hundred days at sea, A wretch away from misery
C                   D   Em
Rummies and rats and tarry jacks my only family
Em            D
The island of salvation Is still a scream away
D    Em           A                 Em
As the lungs of the night Blow out the light my heart kneels Down to pray

Chorus:
Em             D
Lord why did you take her She meant so much to me
Em              Bm            Em
Now I'??m a wretched soul on a privateer Drowning out at sea
Em              D
I'??m killing and I'??m drinking My blue heart to black
    G                C        Em
But I swear oh lord I'??ll never sin again If you bring her back


Verse 2:
Em           D
The Gypsy was a siren, Dripping with desire
   C              D         Em
Her moonlit hair and skin so fair as warm as frozen fire
Em                D
She had the loyalty of a cat, behind those pale green eyes
     Em     A       D          Em
Through her cherry lips, the devil slipped a thousand lies
Em               D
A clan of rogues and vagabonds, occupied her head
     Em         C          D        Em
That thieving band took her pale white hand and stole her from my bed
Em                     D
And like a ghost ship in the night, She drifted out once more
   A          Bm       Em
To land upon the sand of another lover'??s shore


Chorus:
Em             D
Lord why did you take her She meant so much to me
Em              Bm            Em
Now I'??m a wretched soul on a privateer Drowning out at sea
Em              D
I'??m killing and I'm drinking My blue heart to black
    G                C        Em
But I swear oh lord I'??ll never sin again If you bring her back


Verse 3:
Em                   D
In my sleeping mind she sings a sad and lonely lullaby
C                     D       Em
When I wake there's just the ache it will haunt me till I die
Em             D
When those winds of vanity no longer blow her west
Em            A             D        Em
I pray they'??ll guide her home across the foam: and put my heart to rest
Em                D
Press gang filled this Man-o-War To make the black mouthed cannon roar
Em         C          D       Em
Now all my trade is ball and blade, and blood forever more
Em                  D
And the sting of salt and spray, the ocean's howl and squall
A                     Bm        Em
A stumbling wreck, I roam the deck, at the devil'??s beck and call
Bm           Em
At the devil'??s beck and call

Chorus:
Em             D
Lord why did you take her She meant so much to me
Em              Bm            Em
Now I'??m a wretched soul on a privateer Drowning out at sea
Em              D
I'??m killing and Iâ??m drinking My blue heart to black
    G                C        Em
But I swear oh lord I'??ll never sin again If you bring her back
