Davey Jones

I am a simple man 
 I learned to work with my hands out here on these waves
 Sha, la, la, la, la, la 
I guess I've always known 
I would die alone here one cold November day
 Sha, la, la, la, la, la

 I heard that you did take
 My brother in the morning another without warning
 Sha, la, la, la, la, la
 And who am I to think that I'd be any different as God as my witness

 I saw Davy Jones underneath the water
 With a thousand of my fathers calling me home
 And I saw Davy Jones wavin' his black flag countin' up his bones 

 They say when I was five
 The day I cast my first line I fell over the port side
 Sha, la, la, la, la, la
 As I was sinkin' down 
I heard my mama singing, I heard the church bells ringing
 Sha, la, la, la, la, la
 But when they pulled me in I felt him tuggin' my hand 

 I saw Davy Jones underneath the water
 With a thousand of my fathers calling me home
 And I saw Davy Jones wavin' his black flag countin' up his bones Now the waves have snapped the mast
 I'm takin' water so fast I let go of the lines
 And I could feel my father's stare from beyond the grave somewhere 
 As I fail him one last time

' Cause I would never be the man he thought I should be
 The lesser of his sons
 So Jesus help me now, help me to forgive him Dm
 Before the darkness floods in

 I saw Davy Jones underneath the water
 With a thousand of my fathers calling me home
 And I saw Davy Jones wavin' his black flag countin' up his bones
