Mother, mother ocean, I have heard you call,
C G
I wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall.
Am G
You've seen it all you’ve seen it all.
G
Watched the men who rode you switch from sails to steam
C G
And in your belly you hold a treasure that few have ever seen
Am G
Most of them dreams most of them dreams
G
Yes I am a pirate two hundred years too late
C G
The cannons don’t thunder there’s nothing to plunder
I’m an over forty victim of fate
Am G
Arriving too late arriving too late
G
I’ve done a bit of smuglin I’ve run my share of grass
C G
I made enough money to buy Miami but I pissed it away so fast
Am G
Never meant to last never meant to last
G
I have been drunk now for over two weeks I passed out
and I rallied and I sprung a few leaks
C G
But I gotta stop wishin’ gotta go fishin’ down to rock
bottom again
Am G
With just a few friends just a few friends
G | C G | G Am G
G
I go for younger women lived with several a while
C G
Though I ran them away they’ll come back one day
and still can manage a smile
Am G
It just takes a while just takes a while
A Pirate Looks At Forty
G
Mother mother ocean after all the years I’ve found
C G
My occupational hazard being my occupations just not a round
Am G
I feel like I’ve drowned gonna head up town
Am G
I feel like I’ve drowned gonna head up town
