Captain Kidd


Captain Kidd - Great Big Sea ============ Intro: F Fsus4 F F Fsus4 F F Fsus4 F C My name is Captain Kidd, as I sailed, as I sailed, F Fsus4 F C Oh my name is Captain Kidd, as I sailed. Bb F C My name is Captain Kidd and God's laws I did forbid, F Fsus4 F C F Fsus4 F And most wickedly I did as I sailed. F Fsus4 F C My father taught me well to shun the gates of Hell, F Fsus4 F C But against him I rebelled, as I sailed. F Fsus4 F C He shoved a bible in my hand but I left it in the sand, F Fsus4 F C And I pulled away from land, as I sailed. [Chorus] I murdered William Moore and I left him in his gore, Twenty leagues away from shore, as I sailed. And being crueler still, the gunner I did kill, All his precious blood did spill, as I sailed. [Chorus] ********************* * Tabbed By * * Chris Williscroft * (solo - one chorus) ********************* I was sick and nigh to death, and I vowed at every breath, Oh to walk in wisdom's path, as I sailed. But my repentance lasted not, my vows I soon forgot, Oh damnation is my lot, as I sailed. [Chorus] To the execution dock, lay my head upon the block... The laws no more I'll mock, as I sail. So take warning here and heed, to shun bad company, Or you'll wind up just like me, as I sailed. F Fsus4 F C My name is Captain Kidd, as I sailed, as I sailed, F Fsus4 F C Oh my name is Captain Kidd as I sailed, Bb F C My name is Captain Kidd and God's laws I did forbid, F Fsus4 F C F Fsus4 F And most wickedly I did as I sailed.
