Written by: David Lee Murphy
Transcribed by: M. Lawrence
Intro: Bm A G Bm A G
v.1 T[D]he lake at night is still and black[Bm]
[A]The water's smooth like polished glass[G]
[D]You've heard the tales so it's time to go[Bm]
[A]Gonna take you back into pirates cove[G]
v.2 Got a s[D]ure ol' 10 horse Evinrude[Bm]
[A]And a 12 foot jon boat to carry the brew[G]
[D]A couple of steaks and a big ol' knife[Bm]
[A]My old ghost is comin' back to life[G]
chorus:
You could s[A]ay I know the way by heart
Th[Bm]rough the stumps and in the dark[G]
There's one wa[A]y in and that's by boat
That'll ge[Bm]t you back into pirates cove[G]
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
- Play this bass run: Holding G crd. down, play second fret and
fourth fret on A string and then go into your D crd.
