Chords for The New York Trader

_ To the New York trader I did belong, She was fit for sea, both stout and strong, Well-manned, well-rigged, well-fit for sea, Bound for New _ York in a merry _ _ cage.
_ _ On the fourth of March we did set sail, All on the sweet and the pleasant _ kale, With hearts _ undaunted we set for sea, Bound for New _ York in a merry cage. _ _ _ _
A cruel _ captain, as we did find, Left half of our provisions behind, A cruel _ captain, you'll understand, _ Meant to starve us all before we reached the land. _
_ _ As our captain in his cabin lay, A voice came to him and it said, _ _ _ Prepare [Em] _ yourself and ship's company, _ For tomorrow _ night you must lie with me.
_ _ _ Our captain _ awoke in a terrible fright, It being the fourth night of the night, Loud for his bow, sudden he did call, To him relate the secret _ song. _ _
Well, son, says he, it does grieve my heart, To think of at the Devilion's part, To take what was not my love, O Jew, _ For to fail [E] to pass, and your gunnery ship's crew. _
_ _ _ There's one more thing that I have to tell, When I in Waggatport town did [Em] dwell, I killed my master a merchant _ there, For the sake of his lady fair.
_ _ _ _ I killed my wife and my children three, For that caused the jealousy, _ _ And on my seventh I laid the blame, And he [F] was mad.
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Em] O Captain, _ Captain, if that be so, Pray let none of the ship's crew know, _ _ _ But keep that _ secret [B] all in your breast, [E] And pray the _ Lord _ _ may grant you rest. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ The very [E] next morning the storm did rise, And the world demanded much surprise, The [Em] seas came over, the foe in bat, The [B] scarce one man, not that [E] was there.
_ I kept the false and the Egypt declare, That Captain was a murderer, _ This [Em] all was rage, And the whole ship's crew, They all [E] aboard, out [E] of the Jew.
_ _ _ _ All of a sudden the trompe l'oeil, A blue little ship off towards the sea, And the wind [Em] that faded in from the seas, And we sailed [F] on for a [E] very day.
_ _ I know what you need, I stand in your shore, I've got a little ship for you to repair, And even [Em] the one I love must go, With all this [B] dread, this patched ship left for [E] where we'll be.
_ _ He's so sad, I'm so sad, Where will you be, I long and pray you may find me, Have you long [Em] gone, I long to take your place, I'm never going to fade, _ _
_ [E] With the owner of _ _ _ the sea. _ _ _ _ _
