Verse 1
One
(D major) Friday morn when we set sail,
And our (G major) ship not far from (D major) land,
(G major) We there did aspire (D major) a (G major) fair pretty maid,
(D major) With a comb and a (A major) glass in her (D major) hand,
her hand, her hand,
With (G major) a (D major) comb and a (A major) glass in her (D major) hand.
While the raging sea did (A major) roar, (D major)
And the (G major) stormy wind did blow, (D major)
While (G major) we jolly sailor (D major) boys
were (G major) sitting up aloft,
(D major) And the
Landlubbers (A major) lying down be (D major) low,
below, below,
(G major) And the
(D major) Landlubbers (A major) ly ing down be (D major) low.
Then up starts the captain
of our gallant ship,
And the (G major) brave young man was (D major) he.
I've a (G major) wife and a child (D major) in (G major) fair
Bristol town,
But a (D major) widow I fear she (A major) will (D major) be,
will be, will be,
But a widow I fear she (A major) will (D major) be.
While the raging seas (A major) did (D major) roar,
And the (G major) stormy winds did blow. (D major)
(G major) But we jolly sailor (D major) boys
were (G major) sitting up aloft,
And the (D major) landlub was (A major) lying down be (D major) low,
below, below,
An (G major) d the (D major) landlub was
(A major) lying down be (D major) low.
Then out starts the mate of a gallant ship,
And a (G major) bold young man was (D major) he.
Oh, I (G major) have a wife (D major) in (G major) fair
Portsmouth town,
But a (D major) widow I (A major) fear she will (D major) be,
will be, will be,
But (G major) a (D major) widow I (A major) fear she will (D major) be.
While the raging sea came (A major) (D major) o 'er,
And the (G major) stormy winds did blow, (D major)
Why (G major) we jolly say the (D major) boys
were (G major) sitting up aloft,
An (D major) d the man up was (A major) lying down be (D major) low,
below, below,
An (G major) d the (D major) man up was
(A major) lying down be (D major) low.
Then out starts the cook
of our gallant ship,
And the (G major) gruff old soul was (D major) he.

Fair

But a (D major) widow I (A major) fear she will (D major) be,
will be, will be,
But (G major) a (D major) widow I fear she (A major) will (D major) be.
While the raging sea came (A major) (D major) o 'er,
And the (G major) stormy winds did blow, (D major)

An (D major) d the rattle -nop was (A major) lying down be (D major) low,

And in out spoke the little cabin boy,
And the (G major) pretty little boy was he, (D major)

And (D major) you for your wives,
(A major) all three, (D major) all three, all three,
An (G major) d (D major) you for your wives (A major) all three (D major)
While the raging seas (A major) did roar (D major)

And she sank to the (A major) bottom of the (D major) sea,
While the raging seas (A major) did roar, (D major)
And the (G major) stormy winds did blow, (D major)
While (G major) three jolly sailor boys
