[Cm] Here's the other one they let me play.
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _
[Bb] _ _ [Cm] _ _ When first I landed [Bb] in [Ab] Liverpool I [Bb] went [Cm] upon the spree
With money at [Eb] last I spent it [Cm] fast I got drunk as [Bb] drunk could be
[Eb] But [Bb] when my money was all gone [Cm] it was then that I wanted [Bb] more
But [Cm] a man must be blind [Bb] to make up his mind to go to sea [Cm] once more
Once more, [Bb] once more, [C] go [Cm] to sea [Bb] once more
[Cm] A man must be [Bb] blind to make up his [Fm] mind to [Bb] go to [Cm] sea once more
So as I [Bb] walked down London Road [Ab] I met [Bb] with the rapper [Cm] Brown
I asked him if he'd take me in and he looked at me with [Bb] a frown
[Eb] He said last time [Bb] you was paid off [Cm] to me I choked [Bb] no score
But [Cm] I'll give you [Bb] a chance and I'll take your [Ab] advance
And I'll send you [Bb] to sea [Cm] once more
Once more, [Bb] once more, [Cm] send you to sea [Bb] once more
[Cm] But I'll give you a chance [Bb] and I'll take your advance
[Fm] And I'll send you [Gm] to sea [Cm] once more
I shipped on board [Bb] of a whaling barque We [Gm] were bound for the Greenland [Cm]
seas
Where cold winds blow through frost and snow I'd Jamaica rum would [Bb] freeze
[Eb] And worse [Bb] to bear I'd no hard weather gear [Cm] Thus spent all my money [Bb] ashore
It [Cm] was then that I wished [Bb] that I [Fm] was dead And could go [Cm] to sea no more
No more, [Gm] no [Bb] more, [Cm] go to sea [Bb] no more
[Cm] It was then that I [Gm] wished that I was dead [Ab] And could go [Bb] to sea [Cm] no more
_ Sometimes we're [Bb] catching whales, but lads [Ab] Sometimes [Bb] we're catching [Cm] none
With a twenty foot oar stuck in your paw For four o'clock [Bb] in the morn
[Eb] And as the [Bb] shades of night roll on [Cm] And you rest on your [Bb] weary oar
[Cm] It was then that I [Bb] wished that I was [Ab] dead And could [Bb] go to [Cm] sea no more
[Eb] No more, [Bb] no more, [Cm]
go to [Bb] sea no more
[Cm] It was then that I [Bb] wished that I was [Ab] dead And could [Bb] go to [Cm] sea no more
So come all of you [Bb] hard weather sailing [Abm] lads Who [Bb] listen to my [Cm] song
When you get [Eb] back from those long [Cm] trips I'd have you not go [Bb] wrong
[Eb] Take my [Bb] advice, drink no strong drink Don't you [Fm] knock on that brothel [Bb] door
[Cm] But get married instead and [Bb] spend all night in bed And go to [Cm] sea no more
No [Gm] more, no more, [C] go to sea [Bb] no more But [Cm] get married instead and [Bb] spend all night [Fm] in bed
And go [Bb] to sea [Cm] no more
[Eb] No more, [Gm] no more, [Cm] go to sea [Gm] no more [Cm] But get married instead [Bb] and spend all night in [Gm] bed And go to sea [Cm] no more
