Sailortime (Maggie)[Am]
[Am] What shall we do with the drunken sailor?
[G] What shall we do with the drunken sailor?
[Am] What shall we do with the drunken sailor?
[G] Early in the [Am] morning
There [Am] once was a ship that put to sea,
And the [Dm] name of the ship was [Am] Billy of Tea
The [Am] winds blew up and her bow dipped down
[E7] Blow, me bully boys, [Am] blow [Ho!]
[F] Soon may the [C] Wellerman come
To [Dm] bring us sugar and [Am] tea and rum
[F] One day, when the [C] tonguin’ is done
We'll [E7] take our leave and [Am]go
[Am] Way,hey and up she rises [G] Way,hey and up she rises
[Am] Way,hey and up she rises [G] Early in the [Am] morning
[Am] Sling him in the long boat 'til he's sober
[G] Sling him in the long boat 'til he's sober
[Am] Sling him in the long boat 'til he's sober
[G] Early in the [Am] morning
[Slowly & Quietly]
Be [Am] fore the boat had hit the [Am*] water
The [Dm] whaaale's tail came [Am] up and [Am*] caught her
All [Am] hands to the side, harpooned and [Am*] fought her
When [E7] she dived down [Am]low [Ho!]
[F] Soon may the [C] Wellerman come
To [Dm] bring us sugar and [Am] tea and rum
[F] One day, when the [C] tonguin’ is done
We'll [E7] take our leave and [Am] go
[Refrain - same melody as Chorus]
[F] Da-da da [C] da da-da
[Dm] Da-da da-da-da [Am] da da-da
[F] Da-da da [C] da da-da
[E7] Da da da da [Am] da-da
[Am] Way,hey and up she rises [G] Way,hey and up she rises
[Am] Way,hey and up she rises [G] Early in the [Am] morning
[Am] Throw him overboard when we see the shore
[G] Throw him overboard when we see the shore
[Am]Throw him overboard when we see the shore
[G] Early in the [Am] morning
[Am] That’s what we’ll do with the drunken sailor?
[G] That’s what we’ll do with the drunken sailor?
[Am] That’s what we’ll do with the drunken sailor?
[G] Early in the [Am] morning
[Chorus]
[F] Soon may the [C] Wellerman come
To [Dm] bring us sugar and [Am] tea and rum
[F] One day, when the [C] tonguin’ is done
We'll [E7] take our leave and [Am]go
We'll [E7*] take our [E7*] leave and [Am*] go
[Am*] [HEY!]
