D                                A
It's not easy to be this complicated
          D
'Cause I lose my way, I change my mind
        A
And I'm more recently jaded
   D
Or I'll be indecisive and always end up choosing
A
The wrong thing
    D
But I can guarantee you'll never hear me say
     A
That all I want is a home, a family, a porch swing

Refrão:
         D
'Cause I wanna' be a pirate
       G
That's one thing I've decided
         D                          A
It's the only thing that could ever intrigue me
           D
There's no start or end in sight
  G
I guess I'll have to try it
      D                              A
Worse case I'll get swallowed by the deep blue sea
           D
There's no more trying to fight it
    G
The pain I'll leave behind me
     D                       A             D
The sweet imperfections of a hot mess of a girl

    D
And I believe in miracles

But there's know way that I'll
A
Ever fit in
       D
To the modern way of living

It's just not me
       A
Work a nine to five live in complacency
    D
But I gave it my all

I tried, really I swear
      A
For a girl on her own
          D
But after over analyzing everything there is here
     A
It's time for my ship and fresh air

(Refrão)

D              A
And if I know me, like I think I know me
G                        A
I'll try to bargain with myself
     D
I'll tell myself it's really not that bad
       A                       G
And I'll try to stick it out
                    A
A little longer in society never killed no one

    D
But I can tell you

It's a guarantee that I'll
A           D
Always run away from every problem or severed relationship
A
'Cause that's who I am
D
I wanna' be a pirate 'cause they get to be

Whoever they want on deep blue see
