Verse 1
It (G major) was (D major) (G major) Friday morn
when (D major) we set sail
and we (C major) were not (D major) far from the (G major) land
When (D major) our captain in (G major) spite of mermaid (D major) s
so (G major) fair with a (C major) comb and a (D major) glass in her (G major) hand
And the (D major) ocean waves do (G major) roll
and the stormy winds do (D major) blow
And (G major) we poor sailors were
(C major) skipping (D major) at the top
While the (C major) landlubbers (D major) lie down below,
(G major) below, below
While the (C major) landlubbers (D major) lie down be (G major) low
Well (D major) up spoke the captain
of our gallant ship
And a fine (C major) old (D major) man was he
(G major) Real old!
(D major) He (G major) said, this fishy (D major) mermaid (G major)
has warned (D major) us of our doom
We will sink to the bottom of the (G major) sea
And (D major) the ocean waves do (G major) roll,
and the stormy winds do (D major) blow,
And we (G major) poor sailors (D major) go skiffing at the top,
While the Lat (C major) in lovers lie (D major) down below,
(G major) below, below,
While the Lat (C major) in lovers lie (D major) down (G major) below.
Then (D major) up spoke the (G major) gunner
(D major) of his gallant ship,
And a sharp shooting arm had she.
She (G major) (D major) said, I may go down (G major) with (D major) the ship
beneath the waves,
but I'm taking me cannons with me. (G major)
(D major) And (G major) the ocean (D major) waves do (G major) roll,
and the stormy winds do (D major) blow,
and (G major) we poor sailors
go skipping at (C major) the top,
(G major) while (C major) the landlubber (D major) s lie down below,
(G major) below, below,
while (C major) the landlubbers lie (D major) down (G major) below.
Then up jumped the laddie
(D major) from the scallion ship,
and he saw (C major) the mermaid smiling
(D major) happily. (G major)
(D major) He said, I've never kissed a girl,
I'll give that one a whirl,
and he leapt (C major) to the bottom (D major) of the sea. (G major)
And the ocean (D major) waves do (G major) roll,
and the stormy winds do (D major) blow,
(G major) an d we poor sailors go skipping at (D major) the top,
while the Lat (C major) in lovers lie (D major) down (G major) below,
below, below.
While the (C major) landlubbers lie (D major) down below (G major)
I've been stuck (D major) on this (G major) ship for
(D major) months and months and months
And I'm sick (A major) , (D major) as seasick as can be (G major)
They (D major) kept saying I'd get my sea leg soon
But till then (C major) I'll (D major) be heaving in the sea
(G major) And the ocean (D major) waves do (G major) roll
And the stormy winds do (D major) blow
(G major) And we poor sailors
go skipping at (D major) the top
While the Lat (C major) in lover
(D major) s lie down below,
(G major) below, below
While (C major) the Latin lovers lie (D major) down (G major) below
Then off spoke (D major) a drunk
(G major) ard (D major) of a gallant ship
And an old assaulted wretch was he
(G major) He (D major) said, I once caught a
(G major) mermaid this (D major) (A major) (D major) big
And the ocean waves do (G major) roll
And the stormy winds do (D major) blow
And (G major) we poor sailors go skip
(C major) pin' at the top
(D major) While (C major) the Latin lovers lie (D major) down below,
(G major) below, below
While the Lat (C major) in lovers lie (D major) down below
(G major) I stowed away on (D major) this big old ship
Looking for adventure on the sea
(G major) So (D major) far all I've found (G major) (D major) are rats
and mice and fleas
(G major) And now they're the (D major) last
men that I'll see
An (D major) d the ocean waves do (G major) roll
And the stormy winds do blow (D major)
An (G major) d we poor sailors
go skipping (C major) at the top
(G major) While the land (C major) lubber
(D major) s lie down below,
(G major) below, below
While the (C major) landlubber (D major) s lie down (G major) below
Three times round spun (D major) our gallant ship
And three (C major) times (D major) round spun she (G major)
Three times round spun our gal (D major) lant ship
And she sank (C major) to (D major) the bottom of the sea
(G major) And the ocean (D major) waves do (G major) the roll
And the stormy winds do (D major) blow
And (G major) we poor sailors
(D major) go skipping at the top
While the (C major) landlubber
s lie (D major) down below,
below, below
While (C major) the landlubber (D major) s lie down (G major) below you
