A Pirate Looks At Forty - Jack Johnson | Guitar Chords

[Intro]
---------------------
G

[Verse 1]
---------------------
G
 Mother, mother ocean
I have heard you call
   C
We wanted to sail upon your waters
Since I was three feet tall
G                          Am D7                  G
 'Cause you've seen it all,     you've seen it all

[Verse 2]
---------------------
G
 I've watched the men who rode you
The switch from sails to steam
    C
And in your belly you hold
The treasures few have ever seen
G
 Most of 'em dreams
Am D7                  G
     Most of 'em dreams

[Verse 3]
---------------------
G
 Oh, yes, I am a pirate
A few hundred years too late
    C
The cannons don't thunder
There's nothin' to plunder
I'm an underforty victim of fate
G                  Am D7             G
 Arriving too late,     arriving too late

[Verse 4]
---------------------
G
 I've done a bit of smugglin'
Well i've run my share of grass
  C
I made enough money to buy Miami
But I pissed it away so fast
G                         Am D7                        G
 It's never meant to last,     it's never meant to last

[Verse 5]
---------------------
      G
Well, I have been drunk now for over two weeks
I've passed out and I rallied and I sprung a few leaks
         C
But I've got to stop wishin', I've got to go fishin'
Down to rock bottom again
G                        Am D7                  G
 With just a few friends,     just a few friends
                        Am D7                  G
With just a few friends,     just a few friends
