Verse 1
Oh, (C major) there was a lofty ship
and she sailed upon the sea
And the name of the ship was
the (F major) Golden Vanity
An (C major) d she sailed upon the low
and lonesome low
And she sailed upon the (G major) lonesome (C major) sea
Oh, we have not been out
but two weeks or three
When we were overtaken
by the (F major) Spanish enemy
And she (C major) sailed upon the low
and lonesome low
And she sailed upon the (G major) lonesome (C major) sea
Oh, up spate, our little cabin boy
Said, what will you give me
if (F major) I them destroy
If I (C major) sink them in the low,
and lonesome low
If I sink them in the lonesome sea
To him that them destroys,
our captain then replied,
Five thousand pounds
(A minor) and my daughter for his (F major) bride,
(C major) If you sink them in the low,
and lonesome low.
If you sink them in the (G major) lonesome (C major) sea,
Then the boy smote his chest,
and o 'er the side dropped he.
And he swam till he came to the
(F major) Spanish enemy,
(C major) and he sank her in the low,
and lonesome low.
And he sank her in the (G major) lonesome (C major) sea.
Then he swam back to our ship,
and he beat upon the side
Said, Captain, take me in,
(G major) for I'm weary (A minor) with the (C major) tide
And I'm sinking in the low,
and lonesome low
(G major) An (C major) d I'm sinking in the (G major) lonesome (C major) sea
No, I will not take you in,
the captain then replied
I'll shoot you, I'll drown you,
I'll (F major) sink you in the tide,
I'll (C major) sink you in the low
And lonesome low,
I'll sink you in the (G major) lonesome (C major) sea you
