Verse 1
(D major) (G major) (D major) (B minor) (A major) (D major) Since I was a young lad,
I've dreamt (G major) of the (D major) ocean
So I signed on to sail the salt sea (A major)
The (D major) work it was hard,
but I (G major) learned of seafar (D major) in'
They (B minor) soon made a (A major) sailor of (D major) me
I've (G major) ranted and (D major) roved from
(A major) Belfast to (D major) Bo ston
I've been (G major) shanghaied from
(D major) Cork to Saigon (A major)
From (D major) Liverpool to Frisco,
I've sported (G major) and frol (D major) icked
And I've courted the (E minor) girls from
Christ (A major) Church to St. (D major) John
Verse 2
I'm (D major) home from the (G major) sea
No more (A major) I'll go rov (D major) in'
I'm home from the (G major) sea
No more (A major) will I stray (D major)
I'm home from the (G major) sea
No more (A major) I'll go rov (D major) in'
I'm home from the (G major) sea
In sweet (A major) Carnlough (D major) Bay (A major) (G major)
(A major) (B minor) (A major) (G major)

Verse 3
(A major)
I've sailed (D major) through the sunshine,
and stormy (G major) old (D major) weather
Hardships I know very (A major) well
I've plowed (D major) angry seas that were
(G major) over the rail (D major) ings
When we (B minor) thought we were surely (A major) in (D major) Hell
And (G major) each time we landed (D major) back
(A major) home in old (D major) Ireland
When (G major) we were all safe (D major) on the shore (A major)
I (D major) swore up and down that
this trip (G major) was the last (D major) one
But I always returned (E minor) to the
(A major) ocean once (D major) more

I'm (D major) home from the (G major) sea
No more (A major) I'll go rov (D major) in'
I'm home from the (G major) sea
No more (A major) will I stray (D major)
I'm home from the (G major) sea
No more (A major) I'll go (D major) rovin'
I'm home from the (G major) sea
In sweet (A major) Carnlough Bay (D major)
(A major) (G major) (A major) (B minor) (A major) (G major)
Verse 5
(A major)
I'll (D major) never forget when I (G major) first met with Nancy
(D major) Sly Cupid came a- (A major) courtin' that day
The (D major) lure of the sea,
it no (G major) longer was (D major) calling
And my poor (B minor) heart was stolen (A major) (D major) away
And (G major) now we are mar (D major) ried,
and (A major) happy to (D major) gether
With (G major) children to (D major) dance on my knee (A major)
I'm (D major) plowin' the land now,
instead (G major) of rough wa (D major) ters
Content with my (E minor) Nancy,
and (A major) home from the sea (D major)

I'm (D major) home from the (G major) sea
No more (A major) I'll go (D major) rovin'
I'm home from the (G major) sea
No more (A major) will I stray (D major)
I'm home from the (G major) sea
No more (A major) I'll go (D major) rovin'
I'm home from the (G major) sea
In sweet (A major) Carnlough (G major) Bay
I'm (D major) home from the
