The Pirate Sessions Chords


Artist: The Pirate Sessions

Albums: The Pirate Sessions (2011) 

Tuning: Full step down: D-G-C-F-A-D


For both the intro and the verses it is a walk up from Em to G to C. 


        Em           G         C    
I'd had one too many the night before
      Em                 G        C
And I needed to clear my pounding head
     Em                    G       C
So I headed on down to the Eastern Shore
        Em               G       C 
Sunrise Carolina sky was painted red
         Em                 G         C
Well the wind went whipping around my face.
        Em                   G            C 
And the boats on Juniper bay were deathly still. 
        Em                   G        C
Nothing marking time but the crashing waves. 
        Em                     G      C    
And the grand white lighthouse on the hill. 


           C            G            D       Em
When I saw Blackbeard's Ghost in the fog off Ocracoke, 
       C            G               D   
like a rainy Sunday morning back in 1704.
       C                     G
Was he looking for buried treasure, 
         D                Em  
a broken heart from long ago.
              C            D        
Cause he left both off the coast of Pamlico.



          C-G-C-G


Em               G                C
Legends tells he walked the plank alone,
       Em            G                    C
Others swear he took six bullets straight to hell
       Em              G               C 
By the hand of Captain Maynard on that cold November morn.
    Em               G            C
And now he roams the beach all by himself.
 

            C            G            D       Em 
Cause I saw Blackbeard's Ghost in the fog off Ocracoke, 
       C            G               D 
like a rainy Sunday morning back in 1704.
       C                         G 
Was he looking for his buried treasure, 
           D                Em  
his broken heart from long ago.
              C            D
Cause he left both off the coast of Pamlico.


          C-G-C-G-C-G-D


    Em                           Bm                     
And some say they see the lights flickering on the sound
         C                           D 
He's out there every night trying to chase the devil down. 



            C            G            D       Em 
Cause I saw Blackbeard's Ghost in the fog off Ocracoke, 
       C            G               D
like a rainy Sunday morning back in 1704.
       C                         G
Was he looking for his buried treasure, 
           D               Em 
his broken heart from long ago.
              C            D                
Cause he left both off the coast of Pamlico.
