    C                            F    C     G
I'm going to the place where the gods fight wars
          C             Am                 F      G
Where the angels sit in silence, while the demons roar
        C                          F   C     G
It will take me ten weeks down and ten weeks up
         C                 F           G            C
And I'll shake the devil's hand at the cape of good hope


The captain was a hard man, from the town of Killybegs
He had seen two wars and lived, except for his right leg
He was trusted and respected by all of us onboard
And he sailed us along on the pride of Donegal

    C          G              Am          F
I'm drinking today, cause I'm sailing out tomorrow
C               G             Am            F
Twenty weeks at sea without a drop of irish porter
    C          G               Am            F
I'm drinking today, so give me bitter by the barrel
C               F            G         F      Am     G   (stopp)
Twenty weeks to Cape of Good Hope, and home


The first port on our journey was a dock in Tangiers
Then we went to Senegal and things went wrong from there
The best part of the crew lied sick beneath the deck
With yellowfever, scurvey and a touch of gonorrhea

    Am                              G 
The captain lost his marbles and he took a wrong turn
   Am                         F                G
However he did manage that, I guess I'll never learn
     C                        F C  G
Then after seven weeks at the open sea
  C                F           G             C
I saw the shore of Trinidad reveal itself to me

Mellomspill (et vers)

Now I'll never have to see where the gods fight wars
The angels are singing as I'm standing in awe
The pride Of Donegal, well we burned her down
And I'm never gonna leave my place in the sun
