Alestorm- keelhauled

transcribed by Niallakokovich

Intro: Bbm Bbm Bbm Bbm Ab [x2]

After violin starts: Bbm Bbm C# Ab

Repeat this a few times and then when there is a sort of stop just before where 
the guitar comes in play F instead of Ab

Then repeat the phrase a few more times

   Bbm
My friends I stand before you
   C#
To tell a truth most dire
      Ab              F#
There lurks a traitor in our midsts
    F
Who has invoked the captain�s ire
   Bbm
He don�t deserve no mercy
   C#
We ought to shoot him with a gun
    Ab          F#
But I am not an evil man
   F
So first lets have a little fun

      Bbm                              Ab
We�ll tie that scoundrel to a rope and throw him overboard
F#
Drag him underneath the ship
  F
A terrifying deadly trip

Bbm           F#
Keelhaul that filthy landlubber
Ab                   C#
Send him down to the depths below
Bbm               F#
Make that bastard walk the plank
       C#     Ab Eb  C     Bb A Bb (this line is only single notes)
With a bottle of rum and a yo ho ho

  Bbm
I will not say what he has done
    C#
His sins are far too grave to tell
     Ab              F#
It�s not my place to judge a man
    F
But for them he will burn in hell
    Bbm
The sharks will dine upon his flesh
    C#
And Davy Jones will have his soul
Ab             F#
Take his money and his hat
         F
He won�t need them where he�s gonna go

      B                              Ab
But first lets tie him to a rope and throw him overboard
F#
Drag him underneath the ship
  F
A terrifying deadly trip

Bbm           F#
Keelhaul that filthy landlubber
Ab                   C#
Send him down to the depths below
Bbm               F#
Make that bastard walk the plank
       C#     Ab Eb  C     Bb A Bb (this line is only single notes)
With a bottle of rum and a yo ho ho

Then play the last line again to end the song
