last night , i saw it there ,
C D Em
shining in the dark again ,
D C
the light that all men seem to fear ,
D G D C
they say that sailors were drowning in the bay ,
Am
and people kept away ,
F Em
waiting for the riches that a wreck would bring ,
D
when the morning comes ,
C D Em
and now the ghost of blackbeard walks again ,
C D Em
to haunt the ones who would not hear the pain

D C D Em
help me ,
D C D Em
help me . . .

D C D Em
i took the old path down , down to where the graveyard lay ,
D C
the place i knew when i was young ,
D G D C
they say that blackbeard had hidden precious stones ,
Am
amongst the ancient bones ,
F Em
so i set off to the darkness down below ,
D
by the candle glow ,
C D Em
t’was then i heard the voices , saw a light ,
C D Em
and started on the journey of my life . . .
