What the achievement asks
Find six forbidden sea shanties in Tiragarde Sound. Five points, account-wide.
The credit lands the moment you loot one. You do not have to keep them, so sell them afterwards if you like.
Four sit in the world as songbooks. The other two drop from rares.

The two in Boralus
Both are inside taverns in the Alliance capital, which makes them the awkward part of this achievement for Horde players.
Shanty of the Lively Men is in the Curious Octopus, near the bard Russell. It is on the fireplace mantel, not on a table, which is where most people look first.
Shanty of Inebriation is in Hops, Line & Sinker Brewing, on the floor behind Jay the Tavern Bard.
The tavern crowd shows as hostile but does not attack. What chases you is the people in the street outside, and the guards can be walked around. Going in and out without a fight is normal rather than lucky.
The one in the cave
Shanty of Fruit Counting is on the floor of a cave at Anglepoint Wharf, next to a skeleton lying with its arms stretched out above its head. The book has a lock on the cover, which is what tells it apart from the scenery.
