Calico Jack

Transcription by erikgotborn@hotmail.com (erik gotborn)

Taken from the album "Port Royal".

Some riffs are played with muted strings, and I haven’t count how many

times they play on every chord in some of them, so you have to listen to

the record. I haven’t figured out how to the intro is played, if someone

know, please e-mail it to me.

Calico Jack

Riff 1 x1

Riff 2 x4

Riff 3 x2

Up with the roger, the vessel is close

Cannons are loaded, the weapons prepared

Set up more sails the distance grows

They try to escape but we shan’t care

Riff 4 x1

Riff 5 x2

Calico Jack Listen and hear my command

Calico Jack I lead you to victory

Calico Jack We shall win in the end

Calico Jack You may believe what I forsee

Riff 6 x1

Riff 3 x2

Down with the roger, the vessel’s too far

It’s time for the red flag, no remorse

Anne and Mary, more rum in my jar

I need more refreshments before we set course

Riff 4 x1

Riff 7 x4

Changing the course now, we must get in touch

Triple afford, he must not escape

Our breath in their neck they feel our grudge

We have to hurry to get them in scrape

Riff 8 x2

Fight

Riff 9a x1

Riff 9b x1

Riff 9a x1

Riff 9c x1

Riff 10 x1

Riff 11 x4

Riff 12 x4

Riff 13 x4

Acrid smell of smoke in the air

White flag’s rising, mainmast breaks

Ears go deaf by my brother’s blare

Upper deck is taken over

Riff 14 x1

Riff 13 x2

All of a sudden a yelling cry

Ports turn open what a mess

Soldiers get out ‘n’ comrades die

Desperate fights, we’re on the loose

Riff 14 x2

Riff 15 x15

John Rackham

You are charged with murder and piracy on the high seas

In the name of Her Majesty you will be taken from this court

And hung, drawn and quarted

What are your last words?

My last words? Ha ha!!

Who do you think you are?!

What right have you to judge over my destiny?!

Take your pompous words and stick ‘em up were the sun don’t shine

I swear we meet again

Bye

Riff 16 x8
