Chords with lyrics

Verse:
DmDm
I once met a lass so fine.
C majorC
She was drunk on barley wine.
Bb majorBb
I'd been to sea,
A augmentedA
for months a-three.
DmDm
I knew I could make her mine.
FF
And the lass was past consent,
C majorC
So it was off with her we went.
Bb majorBb
And we threw her in bed
A augmentedA
and rested her head
DmDm
And we left, 'cause that's what gentlemen do.

Chorus:
DmDm         G+G
A augmentedA woman has a right to a drink or two,
A augmentedA         DmDm
Without worrying about what you will do.
DmDm         G+G
We say "Yo, ho!" but we don't say "ho,"
A augmentedA         DmDm
'Cause "ho" is disrespectful, yo!

Verse:
DmDm
There once was a girl from Leeds,
C majorC
Who I heard was good on her knees.
Bb majorBb
So I docked my ship
A augmentedA
for an overnight trip,
DmDm
To take care of all of my needs.
FF
She was fine as the tales did tell,
C majorC
And my mast began to swell!
Bb majorBb
So I laid her down
A augmentedA
and raised her gown,
DmDm
And performed cunnilingus for an hour or so.

Chorus:
DmDm         G+G
Always take care of your lady fair.
A augmentedA         DmDm
'Cause they deserve as much attention down there
DmDm         G+G
We say "Yo, ho!" but we don't say "ho,"
A augmentedA         DmDm
'Cause "ho" is disrespectful, yo!

Verse:
DmDm
I once had a woman so fair.
C majorC
Whose womb contained my heir.
Bb majorBb
With a son by my side,
A augmentedA
the seas we'd ride,
DmDm
The child she would bear.
FF
But my girl, she was no fool.
C majorC
She was working her way through school.
Bb majorBb
So I did support
A augmentedA
when she chose to abort,
DmDm
Because it's her body and therefore her choice.

Chorus:
DmDm             G+G
No, we don't say "booty" 'less we're talking about gold.
A augmentedA             DmDm
We don't look at chests 'less it, treasure holds.
DmDm             G+G
With a hat and a feather and a cutlass on our hip,
A augmentedA             DmDm
We will never say "she" when we're talking 'bout a ship.
DmDm             G+G
We don't say "bitch" and we don't say "whore,"
A augmentedA             DmDm
'Cause that language leads to things like body dysmorphia.

Verse:
DmDm
There was a lady with a golden eye,
C majorC
And the doctor said she would die.
Bb majorBb
So she emptied her purse
A augmentedA
to lift the curse,
DmDm
And prayed to stay alive.
FF
She awoke the very next day,
C majorC
Hand in her grave she lay.
Bb majorBb
But the scariest part
A augmentedA
of the story from the start,
DmDm
Is I bet you assume the doctor was a man

Chorus:
DmDm      G+G
Women are doctors, too!
A augmentedA      DmDm
And for a fraction of the doubloons.
DmDm      G+G
We say "Yo, ho!" but we don't say "ho,"
A augmentedA      DmDm
'Cause "ho" is disrespectful, yo!
DmDm
There was a slut with tits to here,
C majorC
And an ass that
DmDm         G+G
'Cause it's "Yo, ho!" but we don't say "ho,"
A augmentedA         DmDm
