Am In the port of Amsterdam
Em There's a sailor who sings
F Of the dreams that he brings
E From a wide open sea
Am And in the port of Amsterdam
Em There's a sailor who sleeps
F E7 While the river bank weeps
Am To the old willow tree
C And in the port of Amsterdam
G7 E7 There's a sailor who dies
Am Full of beers full of cries
E7 In a drunken down fight
F And in the port of Amsterdam
Em There's a sailor who is born
Dm7 E7 On the hot muggy morn
Am By the dawns early light
Am In the port of Amsterdam
Em Where the sailors all meet
F There's a sailor who eats
E Only fish heads and tails
Am He'll show you his teeth
Em That have rotted too soon
F E7 That can haul up the sails

Am That can swallow the moon
C And he'll yell to the cook
G7 E7 With his arms open wide
Am Oh bring me more fish
E7 Though it's down by my side
F And he wants so to belch
Em But he's too full to try
Dm7 E7 So he stands up and laughs
Am And he zips up his flies
Am In the port of Amsterdam
Em You can see sailors dance
F Paunches bursting their pants
E Grinding women's with paunch (not sure about this line)
Am They've forgotten the tune
Em That their whiskey voice croaks
F E7 Splitting the night
Am With the roar of their jokes
C And they turn and they dance
G7 E7 And they laugh and they lust
Am Till the rancid sound
E7 Of the accordion bursts
F And then out of the night
Em With their pride in their pants
Dm7 E7 And the slut that they tow
Am Underneath the street lamps
Am In the port of Amsterdam
Em There's a sailor who drinks
F And he drinks and he drinks
E And he drinks once again
Am Oh he drinks to the health
Em Of the whores of Amsterdam
F E7 Who have given their bodies
Am To a thousand other men
C It's their worth and their goodness
G7 E7 Their virtues all gone
Am For the few dirty coins
E7 When he just can't go on
F Throws his nose to the sky
Em And he aims it up above
Dm7 E7 And he pisses like I cry
Am For an unfaithful love
Am In the port of Amsterdam
Em Dm E7 Am In the port of Amsterdam
