Chords with lyrics

G+G                            D MajorD
Being a pirate is all fun and games Till somebody loses an ear;
D MajorD
It drips down your neck, and it falls on the deck.
                      G+G
Till someone shouts out, ?Oy, what?s this ?ere??
G+G
You can?t wear your glasses, nor chat up the lasses,
           G7G7          C majorC
Your friends have to shout so you?ll hear;
           G+G          D MajorD         G+G
Being a pirate is all fun and games, till somebody loses an ear.

But it?s all part, of being a pirate (a pirate)
        D MajorD              G+G
You can?t be a pirate, with all of your parts;
C majorC                G+G
It?s all part, of being a pirate (a pirate)

You can?t be a pirate, with all of your parts.
 G+G                         D MajorD
Being a pirate is all fun and games Till somebody loses an eye;

It stings like the blazes, it makes you pull faces,
                 G+G
You can?t let your mates see you cry.

A augmentedA dashing black patch will cover the hatch,
            G7G7      C majorC
And make sure that the socket stays dry;
         G+G           D MajorD           G+G
Being a pirate is all fun and games, Till somebody loses an eye.

Chorus
G+G                            D MajorD
Being a pirate is all fun and games, Till somebody loses a hand;

It spurts and it squirts and it jolly well hurts,
             G+G
Pain only a pirate could stand.

The fash?nable look is a nice metal hook,
         G7G7        C majorC
But now you can?t play in the band;
          G+G         D MajorD           G+G
Being a pirate is all fun and games,Till Somebody loses a hand.

Chorus
G+G                             D MajorD
Being a pirate is all fun and games, Till somebody loses a leg;

It hurts like the dickens, your pace never quickens,
          G+G
Hopping around on a peg.

Ask your sweetheart to marry, too long you?ve tarried,
           G7G7        C majorC
?Cause now you can?t kneel down and beg;
         G+G             D MajorD       G+G
Being a pirate is all fun and games, till somebody loses a leg.

Chorus

G+G                           D MajorD
Being a pirate is all fun and games, Till somebody loses a head;

It falls with a thud and is covered in blood,
                 G+G
And your beard is all sticky and red.

You cant comb your hair, cos your heads over there,
          G7G7        C majorC
But besides that by now you?d be dead;
         G+G
Being a pirate is all fun and games,
   D MajorD            G+G
Till Somebody loses a head.

Chorus
C majorC          G+G
So all be aware - it hardly seems fair,
    D MajorD              G+G
But you can?t be a pirate - if you are all there!
