The Pirate's Gospel - Alela Diane

While some folks row          [Verse] Em Em

Way up to heaven                      Bm Bm

I'm gonna sing - The pirate's gospel

I'm gonna sow  - These feet for dancin'

I'm gonna keep - My eyes wide open

Ohohoh, mmhmmh, mmhmmh - Mmhmmhmmh [Chorus]

(Yoho, yoho(…/ho)  - Yohoho x2)        (x4)

(Sing the pirate's - Gospel x1)

Add another flame        - To our forest

Where big-bellied whales - Keep us chanting

We're slapping fireflies - For tiny dancers

Where the children creep

Until the morning          [Intro & Chorus]

When the sun does seep     (Em Em Bm Em x2)

Into our fair flesh         Em Em

Until the fingernails

Will take us home                  [Chorus]

While some folks pray - Their path to Jesus

We're gonna sing  - The pirate's gospel

we're gonna sow   - Our feet for dancing

we're gonna keep  - Our eyes wide open

We're gonna sing  - The pirate's gospel

We're gonna chant - The pirate's gospel

You'll find us clap

The pirate's gospel    [Chorus] (ho/…) (x2)
