Verse 1:
Am                Dm         Am            E
Upon one summer's morning, I carefully did stray
     Am              Dm               E            Am
Down by the Walls of Wapping, where I met a sailor gay
   Am             Dm              Am              E
Conversing with a young lass, who seemed to be in pain
       Am                 Dm                E            Am
Saying 'William, when you go, I fear you'll ne'er return again'

Chorus 1:
   Am                  Dm
My heart is pierced by Cupid
  Am                     F
I disdain all glittering gold
         Am          Dm
There is nothing can console me
       E            Am
But my jolly sailor bold

Verse 2:
    Am               Dm            Am               E
His hair it hangs in ringlets, his eyes as black as coal
   Am          Dm           E           Am
My happiness attend him wherever he may go
     Am            Dm              Am               E
From Tower Hill to Blackwall, I'll wander, weep and moan
    Am           Dm         E           Am
All for my jolly sailor, until he sails home

Chorus 2:
   Am                  Dm
My heart is pierced by Cupid
  Am                     F
I disdain all glittering gold
         Am          Dm
There is nothing can console me
       E            Am
But my jolly sailor bold

Verse 3:
     Am             Dm             Am           E
Come all you pretty fair maids, whoever you may be
    Am           Dm          E                  Am
Who love a jolly sailor that ploughs the raging sea
      Am          Dm          Am             E
While up aloft in storm, from me his absence mourn
    Am           Dm                   E             Am
And firmly pray, arrive the day, he's never more to roam

Chorus 3:
   Am                  Dm
My heart is pierced by Cupid
  Am                     F
I disdain all glittering gold
         Am          Dm
There is nothing can console me
       E            Am
But my jolly sailor bold

Chorus 4:
   Am                  Dm
My heart is pierced by Cupid
  Am                     F
I disdain all glittering gold
         Am          Dm
There is nothing can console me
       E            Am
But my jolly sailor bold
