Capo 2nd Fret
Intro: (G) (D) (Em) (A)
There's A (D) port (F#m) on A (Em) western (Bm) bay
And it (Em) serves (G) A hundred (C) ships A (G) day
Lonely (D) sailors (F#m) pass the (Em) time A(Bm)way
And (Em) talk A(G)bout their (D) homes
And there's a (D) girl, (F#m) in this (Em) harbor (Bm) town
And she (Em) works, (G) laying (C) whiskey (G) down
They say (D) "Brandy, (F#m,) fetch an(Em)other (Bm) round"
She (Em) serves them (G) whiskey and (D) wine
The sailors say (Bm) "Brandy, (A) you're a (G) fine girl
What a (Bm) good (A) wife you would (G) be
Yeah your (D) eyes could steal a sa(A)ilor
From the (G) sea." (G) (D) (Em) (A)
Brandy, wears a braided chain
Made of finest silver from the north of Spain
A locket, that bears the name
Of a man that Brandy loved
He came, on a summer's day
Bringing gifts, from far away
But he made it clear, he couldn't stay
No harbor was his home
The sailors said "Brandy, you're a fine girl
What a good wife you would be
But my life, my lover, my lady
Is the sea."
Yeah (Bm) Brandy used to (A) watch his eyes when he (G) told his sailor's st(A)ory
She could (bm) feel the ocean (A) fall and rise, she (G) saw it's raging gl(A)ory
But he had (Bm) always told the (C) truth, Lord he (Bm) was an honest (G) man
And (A) Brandy does her best to under(G)stand
(G) (D) (Em) (A)
At (D) night, (F#m) when the (Em) bars close (Bm) down
(Em) Brandy (G) walks through A (C) silent (G) town
And (D) loves A (F#m) man, who's (Em) not A(Bm)round
She (Em) still can (G) hear him (D) say, she hears him say
Repeat 2nd Chorus And Fade Out
