Verse 2
She was round (C major) in the
counter and bluff in the bow
So I took in all sail and cried,
"Way enough now"
I hailed her in English,
she answered me clear
"I'm from (D minor) the Black Arrow,
bound (G major) to (D minor) the Shakespeare"
So I tailed her my flipper and took her in tow
Verse 3
And yard (D minor)
arm to yard arm,
away (G major) we did go
But as we were a (D minor) go ing
she said unto (G major) me
"There's a spankin' full rig
(C major) ger just ready for sea"
That spankin' full rigger to New York was bound
Verse 4
She was very well (C major)
mannered and
very well found
But as soon as that packet was
clear of the bar
The mate knocked me down
with the end of a spar
As (G major) soon as that packet
Verse 5
(C major)
was out (A minor) on the sea
It was (C major) devilish hard treatment
of every degree
So I give you fair warning
before we belay
Don't never take heed of what pretty girls say
