A Pirate Looks At Forty Ukulele chords by Jimmy Buffett

Chords with lyrics

Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)

Title:PIRATE LOOK AT FORTY(Jimmy Buffet)

G
Mother mother ocean, I have heard you call
C                     Bm7  Am7 G
Wanted to sail upon your water since I was three feet tall
G  Am7 Bm7 Am7 Bm7     G
You seen it all, you seen it all

G
Watched the men who rode you, switch from sail to steam
  C                     Bm7 Am7 G
And in your belly you hold the treasures, few have ever seen
G  Am7 Bm7 Am7  Bm7     G
Most of them dream, most of them dream

G
Yes I am a pirate, two hundred years too late
  C
The cannons don't thunder there's nothin' to plunder
C         Bm7  Am7 G
I'm an over forty victim of fate
G  Am7 Bm7 Am7  Bm7     G
Arriving to late, arriving to late

G
I done a bit of smugglin', I've run my share of grass
 C                        Bm7 Am7 G
I made enough money to buy Miami, but I pissed it away so fast
G   Am7 Bm7 Am7  Bm7      G
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 smoked a few reefs
C                          Bm7  Am7 G
But I gotta stop wishin' I got to go fishin', down to Rock Bottom again
G  Am7 Bm7 Am7   Bm7    G
Just a few friends, just a few friends

LEAD

G
I go for younger women, lived with several a while
     C                        Bm7  Am7 G
Though I ran 'em away they come back one day, still could manage a smile
G  Am7 Bm7 Am7  Bm7     G
Just takes a while, just takes a while

G
Mother mother ocean, after all these years I've found
C                    Bm7 Am7 G
Occupational hazzard beats an occupation just not around
G  Am7 Bm7 Am7   Bm7      G
Feel like I drowned, gonna head up town
G  Am7 Bm7 Am7   Bm7      G
Feel like I drowned, gonna head up town
