Original token by David Rovics - Black Flag Flying
This version is how i play this song! I added some more chords to accompany the guitar better
to the vocals. Furthermore the vocalmelodie is a bit different to the original
The strumming pattern i use is: DD UDUDD UDUDD UDUDD ... (i do with hammer-on between U D UhD D)
Hope you understand and like it^^
[There are no Verses and Chorus, the song is played as unique]
Am
AmCome all you sailors near and far
You honest men know who you are
FAll of you who'd dare be free
CombAmine with us upon the sea
ToFgether we will drink a toast
CRide the C/Bwind on dAmown the coast
GSee the merchant ship to board
FRaise a jar and swing a sword
Watch to Csee the mC/Berchant Amcaptain cEmrying
When they sFee the bGlack flag fAmlying
Am
AmThe war with Spain is over now
No more Jack over the bow
We Ffight for no one but our class
We're gAmonna kick some captain's ass
AFll you who'd live before you die
CCome give an hC/Bonest life a Amtry
SGail beneath the skull and bones
FPay no heed to crowns and thrones
CNo more C/Bgreedy priAmnces lEmying
When you Fsail with the bGlack flag fAmlying
Am
AmNo more whips and no more chains
To live free or die is what remains
If Flife is too short either way
You Ammight as well live free today
FAll for one and one for all
We'll Cboard the sC/Bhip and mAmake the call
JGoin us all, you good men
And Fhave your liberty again
Watch the Ccrew now lC/Beave their cAmaptain fEmrying
As they Fsail with the bGlack flag fAmlying
Am
HerAme's to Fly and Roberts, brave and true
And Mary Kelly's gallant crew
It Fseems to me the world is ours
WAmatch as the mighty Navy cowers
We Fhave no nation but the sea
No crCeed but tC/Bhat we'll liAmving frEmee
We'll Gloot and burn, all we can
That's Frun by a dishonest man
Their Cend is nC/Bear and theAmres no denEmying
When they Fsee the bGlack flag fAmlying
Am
If AmI could predict the future then I would
But all I know that this is good
F1720 is the year
And Amthere is nothing left for us to fear
FWe may live or we may die
PerChaps our C/BdestinAmy is nEmigh
I Gdon't know what the end may hold
But FI know these ships are filled with gold
That was sCtolen fC/Brom the poAmor, we lay dEmying
So let us Fsail with the bGlack flag fAmlying
Am
