William Taylor was a brisk young sailor
G+G         C majorC    D MajorD
Full of heart and full of play
G+G         C majorC   D MajorD
Till his mind he did uncover
G+G   C majorC    D MajorD  E minorEm
To a youthful lady gay

G+G        C majorC    D MajorD
Four and twenty British sailors
G+G        C majorC     D MajorD
Met him on the king's highway
G+G       C majorC   D MajorD
As he went for to be married
G+G      C majorC    D MajorD   E minorEm
Pressed he was and sent away

G+G          C majorC   D MajorD

G+G         C majorC   D MajorD
Sailor's clothing she put on
G+G              C majorC   D MajorD
And she went on board as a man-o-war
G+G             C majorC     D MajorD
Her pretty little fingers long and slender
G+G      C majorC      D MajorD     E minorEm
They were smeared with pitch and tar

G+G         C majorC   D MajorD
On the ship there was a battle
G+G        C majorC    D MajorD
She amongst the rest did fight
G+G           C majorC   D MajorD
The wind blew off her silver buttons
G+G       C majorC     D MajorD   E minorEm
Breasts were bared all snowy white

G+G          C majorC   D MajorD
Folleri-de-dom, de- daerai diddero

On the ground where she did stand
