A D
It was on last Sunday evening
A E
Just about the hour of three
A D
When my darling started leaving
A E A
To sail on the deep blue sea
[Instrumental]
A D A E A D A E A
[Verse 2]
A D
He promised to write a letter
A E
He promised to write to me
A D
And I haven't heard from my darling
A E A
Who sails on the deep blue sea
[Instrumental]
A D A E A D A E A
[Verse 3]
A D
My mother is dead and buried
A E
My papa's forsaken me
A D
And I have no one to love me
A E A
But the sailor on the deep blue sea
[Instrumental]
A D A E A D A E A
[Verse 4]
A D
Oh, Captain, can you tell me
A E
Can you tell me where he may be
A D
Oh, yes, my little maiden
A E A
He's drownded in the deep blue sea
[Instrumental]
A D A E A D A E A
[Verse 5]
A D
Farewell to friends and relations
A E
It's the last you'll see of me
A D
I'm going to end my trouble
A E A
By drowning in the deep blue sea
