We Hang At Dawn So Drink Tonight

[Intro ] Em G D Am Em G D Em [Verso 1] Em G The irons bite and the lanterns low D Am The gallows wait on the quay below Em G The preacher says we should kneel and pray D Em We'll drink instead, 'till the break of day C G What's that creaking in the night? D Em Just the rope in pale moonlight. C G When's it swingin'? Dawn's first light. D Em So drink, ye dogs, drink deep tonight. [Refrão] Em G We'll hang at dawn, so drink tonight! D Am Fill it up and raise it high! Em G If the rope be tight and the drop be slight D Em We'll curse the sky as we swing and fly! Em G We'll hang at dawn! No fear, no fright! D Am So stamp yer boots and brawl and fight! Em G For dead men don't need rum nor song! D Em So drink tonight for we won't live long! Interlude Em G D Am Em G D Em [Verso 2] Em G The captain's cell is next to mine, D Am He's laughing loud and asking for wine! Em G Says, "I regret no single sin D Em Save spillin' rum on my boot and chin." C G Who fears the rope? Not I, not I! D Em Who fears the drop? Let cowards cry! C G We've kissed the sea and the cannons roar, D Em A little fall won't hurt no more! [Refrão] Em G We'll hang at dawn, so drink tonight! D Am Fill it up and raise it high! Em G If the rope be tight and the drop be slight D Em We'll curse the sky as we swing and fly! Em G We'll hang at dawn, no fear no fright D Am So stamp yer boots and brawl and fight! Em G For dead men don't need rum nor song! D Em So drink tonight, for we won't live long! Interlude Em G D Am Em G D Em [Ponte] Em G Let kings have crowns and judge's their laws D Am We had the wind and we had our flaws! Em G We took what we could and gave none back D Em And laughed as the world slips off it's track! [Verso 3] C G We'll hang at dawn so drink tonight! D Am Spill it down and start to fight! C G If hell's below, we'll drink there too D Em And teach the devils a trick or two! C G We'll hang at dawn, so sing it strong D Am Let the harbour hear our drunken song! Em G For when we swing in the morning light, D Em They'll say we roared through our final night! [Refrão] Em G We'll hang at dawn, so drink tonight! D Am Fill it up and raise it high! Em G If the rope be tight and the drop be slight D Am We'll curse the sky as we swing and fly! Em G We'll hang at dawn, no fear no fright D Am So stamp yer boots and brawl and fight! Em G For dead men don't need rum nor song! D Em So drink tonight, for we won't live long! Outro Em G D Am Em G D Em Em G D Em
