the cheering of the crew

his promise he did rue

entreatings when loudly he did sue

lowland, lowland

Left him in the lowland sea

Em Em 
 
"O messmates, draw me up,

A A 
 
Em Em 
 
for I'm drifting with the tide
Am Am

Sinking in the lowland sea"

but on the deck he died
Am Am 
 
A A 
 
And they stitched him in a hammock
D D 
 
which was so fair and white
G G 
 
Em Em 
 
And they low'red him overboard,
D D 
 
Em Em 
 
and he drifted with the tide
Am Am 
 
D D 
 
And he sank into the lowland,

lowland, low land

G G 
 
Sank into the lowland sea
