[C]
[F] [C]
ooooooooooooooo
There once was a ship that fought at sea
[Dm] The name of the ship [Am] was the billioteen
The winds blew hard and her bow dipped [E] down
Low my [C] bully boys blow
[Fm] So [C] made the women [Dm] come
To bring us sugar [F] and tea and rum
One [C] day when the dying is done
[E] We'll take our leave [C] and go
She had not been two weeks from [Dm] shore
Down on [C] her right will bore
The captain called all hands and [E] swore
He'd take that will [Am] in [F] duel
Soon [C] may the wellermen come
[B] To bring us sugar [Am] and tea and [Fm] rum
One day [C] when the dying is [E] done
We'll take our [Am] leave and go
Before the boat had hit the [Dm] water
The whale's sail came up and [C] caught her
Hands [F] to the side are pulling [E] fodder
When she [C] dived and [Fm] low
Soon [C] may the wellermen come
[Dm] To bring us sugar [Am] and tea and rum
[Fm] One [C] day when the dying is [E] done
We'll take our leave [C] and go
No line was cut, no whale was freed
[Dm] The captain's mind was [C] not of greed
But he belonged to the whaleman's [E] creed
So took the ship [C] and towed
[F] Soon [C] may the wellermen [Dm] come
To bring [F] us sugar and tea and rum
One day when the [Em] dying is done
[E] We'll take our leave [Am] and go
For forty days or even [Dm] more
The line went slack, [C] then tied once more
All boats were lost, there were only four
[E] But still that will [C] did go
[Fm] Soon [C] may the wellermen come
[Dm] To bring us [Am] sugar and tea [F] and rum
One day when [C] the dying is [E] done
We'll take our [C] leave and go
Spores of hurt, the farts [Dm] still on
The line's not [C] cut and the whale's not gone
The wellerman makes his regular [E] call
To encourage the [Am] captain, crew and all
[F] Soon [C] may the wellermen [Dm] come
To bring us sugar [C] and tea and [F] rum
One day [C] when the dying is done
[E] We'll take our leave [Am] and go
[F] Soon may [C] the wellermen come
[Dm] To bring us sugar and [Am] tea and rum
[F] One day when [C] the dying is [E] done
We'll take our leave [Bm] [E] and Go
