[N] [F#] [G#] [F#]
[G#m] [D#] [D#m]
[A#m] Heard you sweet lovely [B]
[C#] Nancy [G#] ten thousand [Fm] [F#] times
[G#] I'm going across the [F#] ocean love to seek for something new
[C#] Come change [F#] your ring with me dear [C#] girl, come change your ring with me
That it [A#] might be a token [C#] of true love [F#] when I am out at sea
[B]
[F#] And when I am far out [A#m] at sea, oh no [Fm] not where [F#] I am
[E] [A#m] Kind letters I will write to [F#] you from every [C#m] foreign [F#] land
[A#] The [F#] secrets of my [A#m] mind dear girl and the best of my [Fm] good will
[G#] So let [F#] your body be where it might, my heart will be with you still
[C#] There's a heavy [A#m] storm [B]
arising [F#] see how it gathers round
While we [A#m] poor souls on the ocean [C#] tide go [F#] fighting for the crown
There's nothing to protect us love nor keep us from [C#] the cold
On the [F#] ocean wide where [C#] we [F#] must fight [C#] like jolly [F#] seamen bow
There's [A#m] tinkers, tailors, [F#]
shoemakers, [C#] life snoring fast [F#]
asleep
[C#] While [F#] we poor souls on the ocean wide go ploughing through the deep
Our officers commanded us, it's them [C#] we must obey
[Fm]
[F#] Expecting every [C#]
[F#] moment [C#m] for to get [F#] cast away
But when the wars [E] are over [C#] there'll be peace on [F#] every shore
[A#] We'll return [F#] to our wives and our families and the girls that we adore
We'll call for liquor merrily, we'll [C#] spend our money free
And [F#] when our money is [D#m] all gone [C#]
we'll boldly [F#] go to sea
[G] [C#] [B]
[A] Thanks [F] a lot
[E]
And I [G#m]
dream [B] of [A#] you
[E] I dream [G#] [D] of sleep
[E] And I dream [A] of you
I [E] dream of [A] sleep
I [C#m]
dream of [A] being [D#m]
[B] old
But [E] through the [B] night [A] I have to say
[G#m] [A]
All [E] through this [D#m]
raging [B] storm
