Verse 1:
A minorAm 
G+G 
FF G+G A minorAm
When first I landed in Liverpool, I went upon the spree
A minorAm 
C/GC/G A minorAm G+G
With money at last, I spent it fast, I got drunk as drunk could be,
C/GC/G G+G A minorAm G+G
But when my money was all gone, it was then that I wanted more,
A minorAm G+G FF G+G A minorAm
But a man must be blind to make up his mind to go to sea once more.
C majorC G+G A minorAm G+G
Once more, once more, go to sea once more,
A minorAm G+G
But a man must be blind to make up his mind,
FF G+G A minorAm
To go to sea once more.
Verse 2:
A minorAm G+G FF G+G A minorAm
And as I walked down London Road I met with a Rapper Brown,
A minorAm C/GC/G A minorAm G+G
I asked him if he'd take me in and he looked at me with a frown,
C/GC/G G+G A minorAm G+G
He said: "Last time you was paid off, to me you chalked no score,
A minorAm G+G FF G+G A minorAm
But I'll give you a chance and I'll take your advance, and I'll send you to sea once more."
C majorC G+G A minorAm G+G
Once more, once more, send you to sea once more,
A minorAm G+G
But I'll give you a chance and I'll take your advance
FF G+G A minorAm
And I'll send you to go to sea once more.
Verse 3:
A minorAm G+G FF G+G A minorAm
I shipped on board of a whaling barque, we were bound for the Greenland seas
A minorAm C/GC/G A minorAm G+G
Where cold winds blow through frost and snow, why Jamaica rum would freeze
C/GC/G G+G A minorAm G+G
And worst to bear, I'd no hard weather gear, as I'd spent all my money ashore
A minorAm G+G FF G+G A minorAm
It was then that I wished that I was dead and could go to sea no more
C majorC G+G A minorAm G+G
No more, no more, go to sea no more
A minorAm G+G
It was then that I wished that I was dead
FF G+G A minorAm
And could go to sea no more
Verse 4:
A minorAm G+G FF G+G A minorAm
Some times we're catching whales, my lads, some times we're catching none
A minorAm C/GC/G A minorAm G+G
With a twenty-foot oar stuck in your paw, from four o'clock in the morn
C/GC/G G+G A minorAm G+G
And as the shades of night roll on and you rest on your weary oar,
A minorAm G+G FF G+G A minorAm
It was then that I wished that I was dead and could go to sea no more
C majorC G+G A minorAm G+G
No more, no more, go to sea no more
A minorAm G+G
It was then that I wished that I was dead
FF G+G A minorAm
And could go to sea no more
Verse 5:
A minorAm G+G FF G+G A minorAm
So come all you hard weather sailing lads, who listen to my song
A minorAm C/GC/G A minorAm G+G
When you get back from those long trips, I'd have you not go wrong
C/GC/G G+G A minorAm G+G
Take my advice, drink no strong drink, don't you knock on that brothel door
A minorAm G+G FF G+G A minorAm
But get married instead and spend all night in bed, and go to sea no more.
C majorC G+G A minorAm G+G
No more, no more, go to sea no more
A minorAm G+G
But get married instead and spend all night in bed,
FF G+G A minorAm
And go to sea no more.
