2 to the Blue

from JollyRoger - Debut Album by JollyRoger

about

2 to the Blue was the first song we wrote, way back in the first week of the bands life. It quickly became a fan favorite and we are so glad we have in on the album.

(Explicit)

lyrics

Intro Solo --- Am - C - E7 - Am.

Am - C - E7 - Am
Sailing round the world, for there is where we came.
Ships and Wrecks and Gold and Death, it’s all the fucking same.
Now I sit before you, telling you my tail.
You’ve probably heard a thousand times, but it aint getting stale.

G - C - E7 - Am
I’m a Pirate on the ocean, and that's where I belong.
Only docking on the land, when the rum is gone.
And then we stop to get our stock, so we can drink again.
Lads, get this anchor raisen, and hoist up the mizzen.

Solo - Am - C - E7 - Am

Am - C - E7 - Am
We go from port to port, JollyRoger never stays.
North and South and East and West, it's all the fucking same.
2 fingers for the navy, 1 finger for the queen.
2 for the blue and 1 in the goo, it's a pirate's life for me.

G - C - E7 - Am
I’m a Pirate on the ocean, and that's where I belong.
Only docking on the land, when the rum is gone.
And then we stop to get our stock, so we can drink again.
Lads, get this anchor raisen, and hoist up the mizzen.

Solo - Am - C - E7 - Am

Am - C - E7 - Am
And when I start me drinking, don't spect me to behave.
Beer and Rum and … Umm… and Rum, it's a pirate's life for me.
Barrels of the stuff we love, it never is enough.
Staggering from stern to bow, the sea aint even rough.

G - C - E7 - Am
I’m a Pirate on the ocean, and that's where I belong.
Only docking on the land, when the rum is gone.

He’s a pirate on the ocean, and that's where he belongs.
Only docking on the land, when the rum is gone.

We are pirates on the ocean, and that's where we belong.
Only docking on the land, when the rum is gone.
And when we stop to get our stock, so we can drink again.
Lads, get this anchor raisen, and hoist up the mizzen.

Solo - Am - C - E7 - Am
