Track 5 - Sailor's Life

CAPO: 4th Fret

[Intro]
D

[Chorus]
C D
Oh, a sailor's life is a weary life

For he robs the girls of their delight

Causes them to weep, causes them to mourn

Loss of a true love, never to return

And on the world's oceans I will float

Hail each captain as I pass by

There I'll ask for my sailor boy

Oh captain, captain tell me true

Does my own Willie sail with you?

Tell me soon to give me joy

None will I have but my sailor boy

He drowned in the gulf and we buried him there

Upon the island as we passed by
G D
There we left your sailor boy

Just like some lady in great despair

Called for a chair to sit her down

Penningdon for to write it down

Oh, dig my grave wide and deep
C D
Put a marble stone at the head and feet

On my grave a turtle dove

Tell the world I died for my love

For he robs the girls of their delight

Causes them to weep, causes them to mourn

Loss of a true love, never to return
