Intro: Bm A G Bm A G*
DBm
v.1 The lake at night is still and black
AG
The water's smooth like polished glass
DBm
You've heard the tales so it's time to go
AG
Gonna take you back into pirates cove
DBm
v.2 Got a sure ol' 10 horse Evinrude
AG
And a 12 foot jon boat to carry the brew
DBm
A couple of steaks and a big ol' knife
AG
My old ghost is comin' back to life
chorus:
A
You could say I know the way by heart
BmG
Through the stumps and in the dark
A
There's one way in and that's by boat
BmG
That'll get you back into pirates cove
v.3 A trail of smoke trails through the trees
Fire down low and there ain't no breeze
Just the cottonmouths and the copperheads
And for some strange reason I fit in (repeat chorus)
(instrumental)
v.4 Well it's a different world when you get back here
The dancin' shadows disappear
The memories they'll come and go
Someday I'll stay in pirates cove (repeat chorus)
(instrumental)
(chorus)
(instrumental).....fade
