Davey Jones

Am                      C

I am a simple man


                         G                                               Dm

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


                                Am

Sha, la, la, la, la, la

                                C


I guess I've always known

                G                                               Dm


I would die alone here one cold November day


                                Am

Sha, la, la, la, la, la



                                C

I heard that you did take


                        G                                       Dm

My brother in the morning another without warning


                                Am

Sha, la, la, la, la, la


                        C                               G                               Dm

And who am I to think that I'd be any different as God as my witness



                Am                              C

I saw Davy Jones underneath the water


        G                       Am              C               Dm

With a thousand of my fathers calling me home


                        G                                       F                  C    â€¦Am

And I saw Davy Jones wavin' his black flag countin' up his bones



                          C

They say when I was five


                        G                                       Dm

The day I cast my first line I fell over the port side


                                Am

Sha, la, la, la, la, la


                        C

As I was sinkin' down

                        G                                               Dm


I heard my mama singing, I heard the church bells ringing


                                Am

Sha, la, la, la, la, la


                                        C                               G

But when they pulled me in I felt him tuggin' my hand



          Am                              C

I saw Davy Jones underneath the water


        G                       Am              C               Dm

With a thousand of my fathers calling me home


                        G                                       F                  C    â€¦Am

And I saw Davy Jones wavin' his black flag countin' up his bones

                                                C

Now the waves have snapped the mast


                        G                               Dm  â€¦Am

I'm takin' water so fast I let go of the lines


                                        C                                       G

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


                         Dm  â€¦Am

As I fail him one last time

'

                                C                               G

Cause I would never be the man he thought I should be


                        Dm  â€¦Am

The lesser of his sons


                        C                               G

So Jesus help me now, help me to forgive him

Dm


Before the darkness floods in



                Am                              C

I saw Davy Jones underneath the water


        G                       Am              C               Dm

With a thousand of my fathers calling me home


                        G                                       F                  C 

And I saw Davy Jones wavin' his black flag countin' up his bones
