Am G F G Am When first I landed in Liverpool, I went upon the spree Am C/G Am G Am While money lasts, I spent it fast, Got drunk as drunk could be C/G G Am G And when me money was all gone, On liquors and the whores, Am G F G Am I made up me mind that I was inclined, To go to sea no more

Verse 2
Am G F G Am As I was walking down the street, I met with Angeline Am C/G Am G Am She said: ”come home with me, my lad, And we’ll have a cracking time” C/G G Am G Am But when I awoke it was no joke, I found I was all alone, Am G F G Am My silver watch and my money to, And my whole bloody gear was gone

Am G F G Am As I was walking down the street, I met Big Rapper Brown Am C/G Am G Am I asked him if he would take me in, And he looked at me with a frown, C/G G Am G Am He said: “last time you was paid off with me, You chalked up no score Am G F G Am But I’ll take your advance, And I’ll give youse a chance, To go to sea once more

Verse 4
Am G F G Am He sent me aboard of a whaling ship, bound for the arctic seas Am C/G Am G Am where cold winds blow, and there’s frost and snow, and jamaica rum would freeze, C/G G Am G Am but worst of all; I’d no hardweather gear, for I’d lost all my dunnage ashore Am G F G Am it was then that I wished that I was dead, and go to sea no more

Am G F G Am Sometimes we’re catching whales me lads, but mostly we get none Am C/G Am G Am with a twenty foot oar in every paw, from five o’clock in th mor’n C/G G Am G Am and when daylights gone, and the noghts coming on, we rest upon our oars Am G F G Am and o’boys you wish that you was dead, or snug with the girls ashore

Am G F G Am Come all you sea-faring lads, that listen to me song Am C/G Am G Am when you go a-big boating, boys, make sure you do not go wrong C/G G Am G Am You take my tip when you come off a trip, Don’t go with any whores Am G F G Am But get married instead, and have all night in bed, And go to sea no more

C G No more, no more Am G Am To go to sea no more Am G Get married instead and have all night in bed Am G Am And go to sea no more
