Mutineer

• C

Jason Isbell and Amanda Shires released a cover of Warren Zevon's "Mutineer" on an EP called "Sea Song". After
watching a video of them play it, I figured out how Jason plays it on his acoustic guitar.  It's different than
Warren's, but still great. Capo the 2nd fret!

Verse 1:
C              F
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum
C                     Am
Hoist the main sails, here I come
F                                C
Ain't no room on board for the insincere
F                  G            C
You're my witness, I'm your mutineer

Verse 2:
C             F
I was born to rock the boat
C                 Am
Some may sink but we will float
F                                C
Grab your coat, let's get out of here
F                  G            C
You're my witness, I'm your mutineer

Chorus:
G           Am
Long ago we laughed at shadows
F                C
Lightning flash, thunder follows
F                        C
They could never find us here
F                  G            C
You're my witness, I'm your mutineer

(Amanda Shines plays a violin solo here, Jason just plays the verse without singing)

Verse 3:
C             F
I was born to rock the boat
C                 Am
Some may sink but we will float
F                                C
Grab your coat, let's get out of here
F                  G            C
You're my witness, I'm your mutineer

Chorus:
G           Am
Long ago we laughed at shadows
F                C
Lightning flash, thunder follows
F                        C
They could never find us here
F                  G            C
You're my witness, I'm your mutineer
F                  G            C
You're my witness, I'm your mutineer

End on C
