Intro: Bm   A   G   Bm   A   G*

     D                                             Bm
v.1 The lake at night is still and black
A                                                     G
The water's smooth like polished glass
D                                                     Bm
You've heard the tales so it's time to go
A                                                      G
Gonna take you back into pirates cove
           D                                      Bm
v.2 Got a sure ol' 10 horse Evinrude
A                                                       G
And a 12 foot jon boat to carry the brew
D                                                Bm
A couple of steaks and a big ol' knife
A                                               G
My old ghost is comin' back to life

    hide ad ⨯
    

        

    




chorus:
           A
You could say I know the way by heart
  Bm                                 G
Through the stumps and in the dark
              A 
There's one way in and that's by boat
          Bm                            G
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
