[Verse 1]
Cm
Piracy's a crime and crime doesn't pay,
Bb Gm
And we go home poor at the end of the day.
Cm Eb
But I'd rather live my life in rags
Bb Gm
Than be taped to a desk with a wife that's a hag.
Cm
We live each day like there's nothing to lose,
Bb Gm
But a man has needs and that need is booze.
Cm Eb
They say all the best things in life are free
Bb Eb D Cm
So give all your beer and your rum to me.
[Chorus]
Cm
We are here to drink your beer
Eb Bb
And steal your rum at the point of a gun
Cm
Your alcohol to us will fall
Eb Bb Gm Cm
'Cause we are here to drink your beer
[2x]
Cm
Drink!
[Verse 2]
Cm
We sailed over seas for Wenches and Mead
Bb Gm
And told great tales of The Huntmaster's deeds
Cm Eb
The quest for a drop of the Famous ol' Spiced
Bb Gm
Has shown us the wrath of Leviathan's bites.
Cm
We went Back Through Time to get more Rum
Bb Gm
Though we end up Shipwrecked having no fun
Cm Eb
But Heavy Metal Pirates we must be
Bb Eb D Cm
So give all your beer and your rum to me.
[Chorus]
Cm
We are here to drink your beer
Eb Bb
And steal your rum at the point of a gun
Cm
Your alcohol to us will fall
Eb Bb Gm Cm
'Cause we are here to drink your beer
[4x]
Cm
Drink!
