Shanty Lyrics Discovered In Game

  • MadcapMoro

    While sailing I came across a curious book containing what look to be song lyrics. I had heard from a crewmate that the lyrics to the songs we can play in Sea of Thieves could be found scattered around the game world, so I thought there should be a place to put them so they aren't lost as soon as found!

    Here are the lyrics I found to start things off:

    "Searchin' for loot wi' the crew one day, through me eyeglass somethin' glinted. Found a treasure chest - the very best. We knew it would make us minted.

    Coins of gold were ours to share. But me I wanted more. Stole from me crew - just an extra few. They knocked me to the floor.

    The brig, the brig. Lock 'im up they said. The brig, the brig. Left me there for dead.

    Headin' back to port with our plunder. We ws boarded by a rival. Twas Three Sheets Neate - a dirty cheat. We fought for our survival.

    Our crew was brave apart from me. I hid on the balcony smokin'. They weren't best pleased - me arms were seized. Yer for it we ain't jokin'

    With this tale of the rubbish sailor."

    I keep hearing whispers of these lore books. May I ask where you found it?

    @LucianSanchez82 Twas on a beach while we were chasing pigs. I don't recall exactly but I'm pretty sure it was on Shark Bait Cove, South West beach facing out to sea.

    @luciansanchez82 I found a Lore book on the beach of Sunken Grove, they're books much like the ones in the tavern or on the galleon bookshelves, except they hold something of great interest!!

    @MadcapMoro Thanks for sharing these, it'd be great to build up a collection!

    @katttruewalker Thanks for the info. I need to put down the grog and start paying more attention!

    I’ve only found one more book and it was basically about someone who cheated at dice or cards and that they were dead.

    Found another book, this one was on Crooked Masts!

    Title: The Lucky Sailor

    I was a lucky sailor, as free as a tropical breeze. But your love clapped me in irons, and I can't reach the keys!

    Now my heart is in your brig, and I know its not the only lodger. But since you cast away your love, I'm no longer Jolly Rodger.

    I'd keep an even keel, but it's a dirty deal! There's no appeal!

    And now I must walk this plank of love! Darling, please be mine. Only you can make me whole.

    Your love is the lime. For the scurvy in my soul.

    I used to dream of sunken treasure, but now my only wish is...

    With you tonight, instead of sleeping with the fishes.

    A few I have found, not listed here so far;

    We Shall Sail Together

    Cloaked in folds of midnight waters. Side by side, we sons and daughters. We set forth for no king's orders. But we'll sail together.

    Hold fast! Tides are turning. Flames roar, fires are burning. We'll all be returning. If we sail together.

    All on the waves shall know our story, sing of the battles fought ashore, we all shall thrive on flame and glory. When we sail together.

    Words of warning have been spoken. Ancient creatures have awoken. Still, until our bond is broken, We shall sail together!

    Becalmed

    Our ship, she dreams of wind in her sails, of wind in her sails unfurled. And shining as we cross the sea, we cross the sea for home.

    Then we'll all raise our voices, a song in our hearts. And set our eyes on distant shores with wind in her sails again.

    There'll be cheering and calling. No more squabbling and brawling. When we have the wind in our sails.

    When we have our feet on the ground. We'll sow our good fortune around. There'll be feasting and pleasure.

    No more rationing and measure. When we have the wind in our sails.

    Oh Hail, the Pirate Lord

    Beyond the ocean, rocks and mist, lies a secret none can tell. Filled with booty, grog and reminisce, It's my crews true place to dwell.

    Oh where will I find a haven safe to stash my hoard? Hush now, you sea urchin! Just take it to the Lord!

    He waits amongst a pile of gold. He wants them chests, unearthed, found and stole.

    Just give 'em up and then you'll see... Pirate Legend, maketh thee. Now set a sail for destiny! Oh hail, the Pirate Lord!

    Beyond horizon, reefs and port. Be a place that none can see. Stocked with parchment, grog, and long lost maps. It be filled with mystery.

    Oh how will I make my ship a legend that's adored. Hush now you land lubber! You haves to please the Lord!

    He waits amongst a pile of gold. Tell him, the things, to your crew never told.

    Just serve him and then you'll see... Pirate Legend maketh thee. Now angle those sails for destiny! Oh hail, the Pirate Lord.

    I know what you're talking about. I found this book on a random island. I didn't know it was lyrics to one of the songs! Figured it might be just a poem.

  • BluWolve

    @rob-deaderick It's hard to know which songs the lyrics are for, but I think "We shall sail together" is the "What do we do with a drunken sailor" sound-alike from the title screen. "Becalmed" is the melancholy sorta song we can play on our instruments, and "Oh Hail, the Pirate Lord" could possibly be the lyrics to the Pirate Legend shanty.

    Okay, so “We Shall Sail together” is the pirate legend shanty. The pirate lord one is the title screen song. I’ve been listening to this over and over and figured it out.
