Ukotoa Sea Shanty

Am
Upon a sea that's tossed and gray
     G
We fight to keep the dreams at bay
Am
For in our sleep we hope for peace
Am
Lest the nightmares have their way

Am       C
Uk'otoa, Uk'otoa
Am       G      Am
Keep him locked away

Am
Chilling thoughts and watchful eyes
G
Await for those who seek the prize
Am
But all is not as it was thought
Am
For the serpent always lies

Am       C
Uk'otoa, Uk'otoa
Am       G      Am
Keep him locked away

Am
And if the creature is released
    G
Our peaceful days will surely cease
Am
The winds will wail as waves assail
Am
To herald what lurks beneath

Am       C
Uk'otoa, Uk'otoa
Am       G       Am
Keep him locked away

Am
A hauntеd fog comes rolling through
    G
The sea bеgins to toss and strew
Am
With cutlass and cannon we make a stand
Am
Though little might it do

Am       C
Uk'otoa, Uk'otoa
Am       G       Am
Keep him locked away

Am
As the serpent rises tall
    G
His many eyes now seeing all
Am
The ship won't keep above the deep
Am
If our steadfast sailors fall

Am       C
Uk'otoa, Uk'otoa
Am       G       Am
Keep him locked away

Am
A flick of tongue and sharpened teeth
        G
Are the only gifts that he'll bequeath
Am
And those who fought to stay aloft
Am
Will be swallowed and drowned beneath

Am       C
Uk'otoa, Uk'otoa
Am       G       Am
Keep him locked away

Am
So heed the words from sailors old
           G
Beware the dreams with eyes of gold
Am
And though he'll speak of quests and powers...
Am
...blessed, ignore the lies you're told

Am       C
Uk'otoa, Uk'otoa
Am       G       Am
Keep him locked away
Am       C
Uk'otoa, Uk'otoa
Am       G       Am
Keep him locked away

Am
Uk'otoa, Uk'otoa
Keep him locked away
Am
Uk'otoa, Uk'otoa
