There came a bold sea captain

For to fight the enemy

Now Holland is a lovely land

Leave off your sore lament
D MajorD           A augmentedA G+G
Is there ne'r a man in Ireland
     D MajorD    A augmentedA     D MajorD
That will be your heart's content

There are men enough in Ireland
  D MajorD       A augmentedA    B minorBm
But alas there is none for me

Since high winds and stormy seas

Have parted me love and me

   D MajorD         A augmentedA   G+G
I'll wear no shoes all on my feet
  D MajorD      A augmentedA B minorBm
No combs all in my hair
   D MajorD    A augmentedA       G+G
I'll wear no handkerchief around my neck
    D MajorD    A augmentedA   D MajorD
For to shade my beauty fair
  D MajorD       A augmentedA G+G
And neither will I marry
 D MajorD    A augmentedA   B minorBm
Until the day I die
   D MajorD       A augmentedA   G+G
Since high winds and stormy seas
   D MajorD     A augmentedA    D MajorD
Have parted me love and I
