These are the songs chanted by the Jackdaw crew while you are sailing away. Aside from the default songs, there are various ones that can be found in different locations in the world map. Marked as musical relics floating around the places, you have to chase them to be able to collect each piece. They will respawn after a few moments in case you missed them the first time. Also, they carry the exact same path so you can simply let one fly away and watch the trail it goes into, then try it again later and anticipate it along its path so you can grab it easily. Here are the various shanties available in the game, including some important details on how to get them:

If you encounter what seems to be an impossible shanty simply wait at its precise starting point until it respawns. As soon as it respawns you will automatically collect it with no chase needed. I found a few particularly annoying and this helped me.
