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 Published:
