Keelhauled Alestorm
Alestorm- keelhauled
Intro: Bbm Bbm Bbm Bbm Ab (x2)
After violin starts: Bbm Bbm C# Ab
Repeat this a few times and then when there is a sort of stop just before where
the guitar comes in play F instead of Ab
Then repeat the phrase a few more times
My [Bbm]friends I stand before you
To [C#]tell a truth most dire
There [Ab]lurks a traitor [F#]in our midsts
Who [F]has invoked the captainâ??s ire
He [Bbm]donâ??t deserve no mercy
We [C#]ought to shoot him with a gun
But [Ab]I am not an [F#]evil man
So [F]first lets have a little fun
Weâ??l[Bbm]l tie that scoundrel to a rope an[Ab]d throw him overboard
[F#]Drag him underneath the ship
A [F]terrifying deadly trip
[Bbm]Keelhaul that [F#]filthy landlubber
[Ab]Send him down to the [C#]depths below
[Bbm]Make that bastard [F#]walk the plank
C# Ab Eb C Bb A Bb (this line is only single notes)
With a bottle of rum and a yo ho ho
I [Bbm]will not say what he has done
His [C#]sins are far too grave to tell
Itâ??[Ab]s not my place t[F#]o judge a man
But [F]for them he will burn in hell
The [Bbm]sharks will dine upon his flesh
And [C#]Davy Jones will have his soul
[Ab]Take his money [F#]and his hat
He wonâ??[F]t need them where heâ??s gonna go
But fi[B]rst lets tie him to a rope and [Ab]throw him overboard
[F#]Drag him underneath the ship
A [F]terrifying deadly trip
[Bbm]Keelhaul that [F#]filthy landlubber
[Ab]Send him down to the [C#]depths below
[Bbm]Make that bastard [F#]walk the plank
C# Ab Eb C Bb A Bb (this line is only single notes)
With a bottle of rum and a yo ho ho
Then play the last line again to end the song
