key: G
D             G
Heave ho, the captain's gold
C                           G
the last glass eye that the Gypsy stole
D                G       
I'd be fine just taking a stroll
C                                   G
through the long brown grass as the river unfolds


[Chorus]
Bm           E
Random clans gather on the strands
D             G          C               G
Shaking their leaves and stomping in the sand
Bm             E
Big black bird hanging in the sky
D            G            C        G
A stern-eyed lover with a ravenous eye


[Interlude]
D G C G
Heave ho


[Verse]
D             G
Heave ho, the captain's gold
C                       G
Broke down boat sitting quiet in the shoals
D                       G
Black-eyed child rising silent from the coals
C                            G
As the sun goes down and the night unfolds


[Chorus]
Bm           E
Random clans gather on the strands
D             G          C               G
Shaking their leaves and stomping in the sand
Bm             E
Big black bird hanging in the sky
D            G            C        G
A stern-eyed lover with a ravenous eye


[Verse]
D                   G
Round and round and round it goes
C                   G
Big black bird just spinning in the coals
D                   G
Round and round and round it goes
C                           G
Where it's gonna stop ain't nobody knows
