[Intro]
(Instrumental Solo)
[Verse 1]
Down where Sargauth waters crawl
Darkness breathes behind the wall
They found the mouth of hollow stone
And whispers from a bone white throne
Worn pack half buried in the mud
Left by one who drew no blood
Crowbar bound and coiled rope
Left where the black river slopes
Torches rotted, bread gone sour
Skin cracked dry a hundred hour
All the marks of one who came
Chasing fire, chasing name
[Chorus]
Oh Captain where is your gold?
All the tales the sailors told?
Beneath the stone where shadows sleep
You still stand your endless keep
River runs and shadows creep
Dead men do not stir nor speak
Yet greed still hums through stone and wave
For those who hunt the Captain's Grave
[Verse 2]
Past the bank where moss grows thick
Deeper in the breathless dark
Two red eyes behind the mist
Waited for the fools to list
Barlguras hid from mortal sight
Breathing slow and out of light
Teeth sharpened for the kill
No one saw them standing still
Till Zelprime heard the shadow shift
Beroth breathed the warning swift
Every hand went to the hilt
Before the first demon spilt
[Verse 3]
Steel sang out and battle roared
Demons crashed across the floor
Grog met claw with bone jarring blow
Arius called the holy glow
Wiskim danced through fang and claw
Striking fast the world raw
Till both fiends lay broken still
Cold upon the stone and chill
[Chorus]
Oh Captain where is your gold?
All the tales the sailors told?
Beneath the stone where shadows sleep
You still stand your endless keep
River runs and shadows creep
Dead men do not stir nor speak
Yet greed still hums through stone and wave
For those who hunt the Captain's Grave
[Verse 4]
Back against the western wall
They found her at the last of all
Pirate bones laid straight and true
Still guarding what she never knew
Rusty sword in bony fist
Sand stained tankard at her wrist
Beneath her knee the broken cask
That drowned the whole damn crew at last
Beroth traced the weathered stone
Found the slot cut fine and lone
Perfect fit for the blade she held
Lock the dead had never spelled
[Verse 5]
Rusty steel slid home with grind
Dust fell down from roof and rind
Stone wall groaned and split apart
Laid bare the dead captain's heart
Chest came crashing to the ground
Silver coins rolled round and round
Rolled like waves on distant tide
All the things for which she died
Agates glowing in the dark
Dice she held when her heart stopped
Black obsidian tower tall
Pearls that caught the torchlight fall
Strangest thing beneath the gold
Shriveled head of sea elf old
Potion sealed within its jaw
Waiting all the years for law
[Final Chorus]
Oh Captain now your watch is done
Your hidden treasure finally won
River sings the same old song
Heroes carry your name along
Beneath the mountain dark and deep
You may finally lay and sleep
All the world shall learn your name
They have found the Captain's Grave
