[Verse 1]
Am G Am G
A ship fought the furious restless waves
Am G Am G Am
Bound for England shore
Am G Am G
The boat sailed with haste for the smuggler on board
Am G Am G Am
A luxurious mansion he saw
Dm Am
His eyes they did burn with the flame of desire
Em Am
For the gold of the Earl he did crave
Dm Am
With a terrible roar his boat hits the shore
Em Am Em Am
And the smuggler went after his gold
[Verse 2]
Am G Am G
He took all the gold that came to his eyes
Am G Am G Am
Fueled by merciless greed
Am G Am G
Hearing the smuggler the Earl he awoke
Am G Am G Am
And caught the thief with gold in hand
Dm Am
The thief he was crazed through fear and dismay
Em Am
And soon his pistol was raised.
Dm Am Em
The Earl didn’t fight, a shot paced the night
Am G Am
He shot him down dead
[Chorus 1]
C G Am G
Oh ! He sailed off to seize his visions of gold !
C G F
He sailed to England shore !
C G Am F
He’s taken their gold and he’s taken their lives !
F G Am
And his hands are now painted with blood !
F G Am G Am
And his hands are now painted with blood !
[Verse 3]
Am G Am G
With blood on his hands, his work was not done
Am G Am G Am
And still he lusted for gold
Am G Am G
As he looted the house, a young maiden he found
Am G Am G Am
Asleep and as white as a bird
Dm Am
His lust for riches and gold disappeared
Em Am
For lust of the love of the girl
Dm Am
Her skin were pure white, red lips and blue eyes
Em Am G Am
The smuggler had found his true thrives
[Chorus 2]
C G Am G
Oh ! He sailed off to seize his visions of gold !
C G F
He sailed to England shore !
C G Am F
He’s taken their gold and he’s taken their lives !
F G Am
But the girl is his true desire !
F G Am G Am
Now the girl is his true desire !
[Verse 4]
Am G Am G
As quiet as the night as the waves press the ships
Am G Am G Am
He stole one kiss from her lips
Am G Am G
As he turned to leave, a voice he did hear
Am G Am G Am
For his kiss had awaken the girl
Dm Am
As she looked in his eyes, she too had desire
Em Am G Am
Both of them bound by love
Dm Am
Before he set sail she ask through were he came
Em Am G Am
And watched him sail all the waves
[Chorus 3]
C G Am G
Oh ! He sailed off to seize his visions of gold !
C G F
He sailed to England shore !
C G Am F
He’s taken their gold and he’s taken their lives !
F G Am
And he’s stolen the heart of the girl !
F G Am G Am
Now he’s stolen the heart of the girl !
[Verse 5]
Am G Am G
When she could see him no more, she flew down the hall
Am G Am G Am
To tell of her love to her father
Am G Am G
Her father she found dead on the ground
Am G Am G Am
Her tears filled with furious rage
Dm Am
Her love turned to hate and lust for revenge
Em Am
Wild and untamed as the sea.
Dm Am
A boat she founds to where he was bound
Em Am
and stood the wave in the howl
[Chorus 4 ]
C G Am G
Oh ! She sailed off seas, her visions were cold !
C G F
She sailed from England shore !
C G Am F
He’s taken their gold and he’s taken her heart !
F G Am
And she’s coming to take the revenge !
F G Am
Now she’s coming to take the revenge !
[Verse 6]
Am G Am G
The girl crossed the waves and soon the boat end
Am G Am G Am
To the land where dwelled the young smuggler
Am G Am G
She searched the town till the smuggler she founds
Am G Am G Am
Surrounded by his stolen treasure
Dm Am
When he saw who she was, he was blinded by love
Em Am
Not seeing her lust for revenge
Dm Am
He gave her riche food, fine clothing and jewels
Em Am Em Am
For he was bound by love.
[Chorus 5]
C G Am G
Oh ! She sailed off seas, her visions were cold !
C G F
She sailed from England shore !
C G Am F
She’s taking his gold and she’s taking his heart !
F G Am
And now she has come for revenge !
F G Am G Am
And now she has come for revenge !
[Verse 7]
Am G Am G
As day turn to night, she turned out the light
Am G Am G Am
Seducing him into his chamber.
Am G Am G
Defenceless he laid, blind to his fate
Am G Am G Am
Enchanting by her beauty.
Dm Am
When her work was done, she took up his gun
Em Am
And smiling went back to his chamber
Dm Am Em
Before he could rise a shot paced the night.
Am G Am
She shot him down dead !
[Chorus 6]
C G Am G
Oh ! She sailed off seas, her visions were cold !
C G F
She sailed from England shore !
C G Am F
She’s taken his heart and she’s taken his life !
F G Am
And her hands are now painted with blood !
F G Am
And her hands are now painted with blood !
