[Verse]
AmWe have served many years under rCoyal deGcree
Crossed the oAmcean so vFast to the nGew coloCnies E
We've starAmvation endured, eaten Crations of Gmold
And we sDmlaughtered our Amfriends for a mEinimum Amsold
[Verse]
Been discarded like tEmrash for a tCreaty with SGpain
No more wAmork for us saFilors till wGar comes aCgain E
In the rAmuins of Nassau, we gaCthered our stGrength
And fDmounded a fuAmture and hEome for our frAmiends
[Pre-Chorus]
AmBut hFere we aGre at gCallow's pAmoint
In WGoodes Rogers' ruse we've been cAmaught
To pFardon accGept and get bCack in the fAmold
Or be fDmed to the crows in a nEoose
[Chorus]
BAmleed for Queen AGnne! StDmarve for King GAmeorge!
We're trFampled and tGorn in this eClephants daEnce
WAme're taking the rGope, for the sDmake of the cAmode
So the fFree folk of NGassau might sAmtill stand a chance
[Verse]
AmOh we had a good run, with a cCutlass and gGun
I've earned mAmost of my meFals sailing Gon the acCcord E
Our repAmublic fought back every ECnglish atGtack
As we gDmathered a fAmleet sailing uEnder the blAmack
[Pre-Chorus]
AmBut nFow we are scGattered, diCvided and wAmeak
The Genemy wedged in our mAmidst
No fForce or no flGeet could have tCorn us apAmart
Like KDming George's grand cleEmency
[Chorus]
BAmleed for Queen AGnne! StDmarve for King GAmeorge!
We're trFampled and tGorn in this eClephants daEnce
WAme're taking the rGope, for the sDmake of the cAmode
So the fFree folk of NGassau might sAmtill stand a chance
[Bridge]
AmOh I spit on your conditions, in fact I think I'll pass
AmThem terms won't do to wipe the shit out of me Irish ass
I'd rather dGie a fFree man, than live my lGife a sAmlave
You take that bDmloody paErdon, and you pDmlant it on my gErave
Dm Bb F C A
[Bridge spoken]
We are Dmborn of the salt, we chBbildren of the sea F
We dCon't bend our knees to Ano king or cDmountry
So we hBboist the Jolly Roger, tFhe colours of the fCree A Dm
We are bDmorn of the salt, we are chBbildren of the sea
We dFon't bend our knees to no kCing or couAntry
So we hDmoist the Jolly Roger, the cBbolours of the free
And Fif we hit the gallows, that's the wCay that it must Abe
We are bDmorn of the salt, we are chBbildren of the sea
We dFon't bend our knees to no kCing or couAntry
So we hDmoist the Jolly Roger, the cBbolours of the free
And Fif we hit the gallows, that's the wCay that it must Abe
[Chorus]
We'll not blBmeed for Queen AAnne! StaEmrve for King GeBmorge!
We're trGampled and tAorn in this elDephants dF#ance
We're tBmaking the rAope, for the sEmake of the cBmode
So the fGree folk of NAassau might sBmtill stand a cAhance
StEmarve for King GBmeorge!
We're trGampled and tAorn in this elDephants dF#ance
We're tBmaking the rAope, for the sEmake of the cBmode
So the fGree folk of NAassau might sBmtill stand a chance
