Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 x2
Fifteen  men on the dead man's chest
Drink  and the devil had done for the rest.
The  mate was fixed with the bosun's  pike
 and the bosun  brained with a marlin-spike.
 Cookie's  throat was marked belike
 Ref:
It  had been clutched by fingers ten.
And  there they lay, all good dead men,
Like  break o' day in a boozing den
Yo-ho-ho  and a bottle of rum!
 thingy again
 That's all you need for the song! The rest of it is just the same. Atleast now it should
 easier for you to listen to the song and put in the right chords.
