G D G [Verse 1]G I wish I were in London,D Or some other seaport townD Set my foot in a steamboatG And sail the ocean `round. [Verse 2]G While sailing on the ocean,D While sailing on the seaD I'd think of handsome MollyG Wherever she might be. [Break]G D G [Verse 3]G Remember Handsome MollyD When you gave me your right hand?Continues after the adD And you said if you were to marryG Then I'd be the man. [Verse 4]G But now you broke your promiseD Go marry whom you pleaseD While my poor heart is breakingG You're going at your ease. [Break]G D G [Verse 5]G She goes to church on SundayD And she passes me on byD I can tell her mind is changin'G By the roving of her eye. [Verse 6]G Her hair is black as a ravenD Her eyes are black as a crowD Her cheeks look like linensG out in the morning glow [Break]G D G [Verse 7]G I wish I were in London,D Or some other seaport townD Set my foot in a steamboatG And sail the ocean `round. [Verse 8]G While sailing on the ocean,D While sailing on the seaD I'd think of handsome MollyG Wherever she might be.
