Oh my dear, you prepare, are you going anywhere?
Em C G Em
Oh my dear, back from town, are you to a vessel bound,

Off to war on an angry sea?
VERSE:
G D G D
Fairest one, I love you, this is something I must do
Em C G Em
Fairest one, if I stay, then your honor I'd betray

In Her Majesty's company

Fairest one never knew what I'm really set to do

Fairest one of my land, I do not deserve your hand

Fairest one, like a fool, I have been the devil's tool
