[E] [A]
It was 25 or 30 years since Jack first [E] saw the light
While he came into [B] this world of old one dark and [A] stormy night
He was born aboard his father's ship that she was [E] lying to
About 25 or 30 miles south east of [A] Bagaloo
Now Jack was every [E] inch a
[D] sailor
[E] Five and twenty [A] years a whaler

He [E] was born upon the bright blue [A]
sea

the whale went spray for a bath in bay about 90 knots [E] an hour
And every time he'd blow a spray he'd send [A] it in a shower
