Y[Am]on?s my privateer
See how trim she lies
To every man a lucky hand
And every man a prize
I live to ride the ocean
The m[C]ighty world ar[G]ound[Am]
To take a little pl[C]under
And to h[G]ear the cannon s[Am]ound
To l[F]ay with pretty w[C]omen
To drink Madeira w[G]ine[D/F#]
To h[Am]ear the rollers th[C]under
On a sh[G]ore that isn?t m[Am]ine
Privat[Am]eering we will go
Privateering, yo ho hoho
Privateering we will go
Yo ho ho, yo ho ho

The p[Am]eople on your man o? war
Are treated worse than scum
I?m no flogging captain
And by God I?ve sailed with some
Come with me to Barbary
We?ll pl[C]y there up and d[G]own[Am]
Not quite ex[C]actly
In the s[G]ervice of the Cr[Am]own
To l[F]ay with pretty w[C]omen
To drink Madeira w[G]ine[D/F#]
To h[Am]ear the rollers th[C]under
On a sh[G]ore that isn?t m[Am]ine
Privat[Am]eering we will go
Privateering, yo ho hoho
Privateering we will go
Yo ho ho, yo ho ho

L[Am]ook?ee there?s my privateer
She?s small but she can sting
Licensed to take prizes
With a letter from the King
I love the streets and taverns
Of a pr[C]etty foreign t[G]own
Tip my h[Am]at to the dark-eyed l[C]adies
As we s[G]ally up and d[Am]own
To l[F]ay with pretty w[C]omen
To drink Madeira w[G]ine[D/F#]
To h[Am]ear the rollers th[C]under
On a sh[G]ore that isn?t m[Am]ine
Privat[Am]eering we will go
Privateering, yo ho hoho
Privateering we will go
Yo ho ho, yo ho ho

Brit[Am]annia needs her privateers
Each time she goes to war
Death to all her enemies
Though prizes matter more
Come with me to Barbary
We?ll pl[C]y there up and d[G]own[Am]
Not quite ex[C]actly
In the s[G]ervice of the Cr[Am]own
To l[F]ay with pretty w[C]omen
