Verse 1
(D major) (A minor) (A major) (D major) Oh! my wife and I
went on an ocean cruise
Three days out and I was sick
down to my shoes (A major)
And to make (G major) it more forelorn, we sailed
into a ra (D major) gin' storm
Where we were,
nobody seemed (A major) to have a clue. (D major)
Verse 2
(D major) While the ship was bein'
tossed and thrown about
I decided that I'd try to take a nap (A major)
Then I (G major) heard an awful noise and
I asked (D major) one of the boys
What had happened and you should
(A major) of heard him shout. (D major)
