Ok. There are some strange (?) markings in this tab. I didn't want to
write that power chord strumming in tab because it takes some space (and
I'm lazy also ;). So I tried to figure out a better (?) way to write it
and I came up with this: '/'. It isn't a new invention but it lacks timing,
so I placed between strokes either '-' or '='. If there is '-' (one or
more) between strokes, they are 1/8 notes. If there is '=', they are 1/16
notes. I might have marked whether it is upstroke or downstroke but the
strumming is mostly palm muted so it doesn't matter. Tempo is someting
like 168.
Tell me what you think about it. Enjoy!
H = Hammer on, P = Pull off, Ah = Artificial harmonic, --3-- = triol

The air sparks thunder and lightning their bellies are shivered with fear
We showered their coldhearted souls with sarcastic sneer
Our cohorts are ready for seizing. The skulla and the crossbones fly high
We're taking over your vessel whatever you try

Guns spitting iron and fire, acrid snoke clouding the air
Ripping the planks, feeding the flame of despair
Hoisting the flag of surrender, delivering their silver and gold
A generous gift to the poor, for the brothers they sold
