[Verse] D I thought I heard the Old Man say: A D "Leave her, Johnny, leave her." G D Tomorrow ye will get your pay, A D and its time for us to leave her. [Chorus] A D Leave her, Johnny, leave her! G D Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her! G D For the voyage is long and the winds don't blow A D And it's time for us to leave her.
[Verse] D Oh, the wind was foul and the sea ran high A D Leave her, Johnny, leave her! G D She shipped it green and none went by. A D And it's time for us to leave her. [Chorus] A D Leave her, Johnny, leave her! G D Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her! G D For the voyage is long and the winds don't blow A D And it's time for us to leave her. [Verse] D I hate to sail on this rotten tub. A D "Leave her, Johnny, leave her!" G D No grog allowed and rotten grub. A D And it's time for us to leave her. [Chorus] A D Leave her, Johnny, leave her! G D Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her! G D For the voyage is long and the winds don't blow A D And it's time for us to leave her. [Verse] D We swear by rote for want of more. A D "Leave her, Johnny, leave her!" G D But now were through so we'll go on shore. A D
