Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
without guitar)
^^^^^
Sail away where no ball and chain
Can keep us from the roarin' waves
Together undivided
but forever we'll be free
So sail away aboard our rig
The moon is full and so are we
We're seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins
Interlude
^^^^^^^^^
Verse 1
very fast strumming)
^^^^^^^
So the years rolled by and several died
And left us somewhat reelin'
Johnny strummed his Tommy gun
Left blastin' through the ceiling
So what became of rebels
Who sang for you and me?
Grapplin' with their demons
In the search for liberty
Verse 2
^^^^^^^
Suffers who suffer all
Can swim upon the desert
Where avarice have ravaged all
In spite of good intentions
Don't fill your mouth with gluttony
For pride will surely swell
But nothing's unforgiven
in the four corners of hell
Chorus
^^^^^^
Sail away where no ball and chain
Can keep us from the roarin' waves
Together undivided
but forever we'll be free
So sail away aboard our rig
The moon is full and so are we
We're seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins
We're seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins
Interlude
^^^^^^^^^
Verse 3
^^^^^^^
Envy and its evil twin
It crept in bed with slander
Idiots they gave advice
But sloth it gave no answer
Anger kills the human soul
With butter tales of lust
While Pavlov's Dogs keep chewin'
On the legs they never trust
Chorus
^^^^^^
Sail away where no ball and chain
Can keep us from the roarin' waves
Together undivided
but forever we'll be free
So sail away aboard our rig
The moon is full and so are we
We're seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins
We're seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins
Interlude
^^^^^^^^^
x2
Bridge
^^^^^^
But It's the only life we'll know
Blagards to the bone
So don't wreck yourself
Take an honest grip
For there's more tales beyond the shore
in the following interlude, just a D| chord
Verse 4
without guitar at first)
^^^^^^^
Ah the years rolled by and several died
And left us somewhat reelin'
In and out came crawlin' out
And spewed upon the ceiling
So what became of rebels
That sang for you and me
Grapplin' with their demons
In the search for liberty
Out-Chorus
^^^^^^^^^^
Sail away where no ball and chain
Can keep us from the roarin' waves
Together undivided
but forever we'll be free
So sail away aboard our rig
The moon is full and so are we
We're seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins
Sail away where no ball and chain
Can keep us from the roarin' waves
Together undivided
but forever we'll be free
So sail away aboard our rig
The moon is full and so are we
We're seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins
We're seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins
We're seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins
so that's it! Quite easy to play but still a great song!
