AmI am a simple man C

 G Dm
I learned to work with my hands out here on these waves

Sha, la, la, la, la, la Am

I guess I've always kCnown

I wouGld die alone here one cold November day̷Dm2;
Sha, la, la, la, la, la̷Am2;

I heard that you did takeC232;
My brother in the morninGg another without warning
 Dm
Sha, la, la, la, la, la̷Am2;
And who am I to think thCat I'd be any different as God aGs my witness
̷Dm2;
I saw Davy JonesAm underneath the water
C
With a tGhousand of my fathers caAmlling me home&amCp;#8232; Dm
G F C
Am
And I saw Davy Jones wavin' his black flag countin' up his bones


 C
They say when I was five

The day I cast my first Gline I fell over the port side
Dm;
Sha, la, la, la, la, la̷Am2;
As I was sinkin' down C

I heard my maGma singing, I heard the church bells ringing&Dm;#8232;
Sha, la, la, la, la, la̷Am2;
But when they pulled me in I felt him tuCggin' my hand G


 Am C
I saw Davy Jones underneath the water

With a tGhousand of my fathers caAmlling me home&amCp;#8232; Dm
G F C
Am
And I saw Davy Jones wavin' his black flag countin' up his bones
Now the waves have snapped the mast
 C
G Dm
Am
I'm takin' water so fast I let go of the lines

And I could feel my father's stare from Cbeyond the grave somewhere G

 Dm
Am
As I fail him one last time

'
Cause I would never be the man hCe thought I should be
G
Dm
Am
The lesser of his sons

So Jesus help me now, heClp me to forgive him G
Dm

Before the darkness floods in


I saw Davy JonesAm underneath the water

With a tGhousand of my fathers caAmlling me home&amCp;#8232; Dm
And I saw Davy Jones wavGin' his black flag countin' up his bonesF C
