[D] [A] [D] [F#m]
[D] [E]
[A] Oh for a brave and a gallant ship and a fair and a favouring breeze
With a bully crew and a captain too to [Bm] carry [A] me o'er the seas
To carry me o'er the seas me boys to me true love far away
For [D] I'm taking [A] a trip on a government ship [Em] ten thousand [A] miles [D] away
[A] Then blow you in, sigh ho, a-roving I [D] will go
I'll stay no more [A] on the air and shore to hear the [E] fiddlers play
[A] I'm off on the bound in Maine and I won't be back [D] again
For I'm on [A] the move to my own true love ten thousand miles [D] away
[A] My true love she was beautiful, my true love she was young
Her eyes were like the diamonds [D] bright and [A] silvery was her tongue
And silvery was her tongue me lads there's a big ship [D] at the bay
And she said will [A] you remember me ten thousand miles away
Then blow you in, sigh ho, a-roving [D] I will go
I'll stay no [A] more on the air and [Bm] shore to [F#m] hear the [E] fiddlers [A] play
I'm off on the bound in Maine and I won't be back again
For I'm on the move to my own true [E] love ten thousand [A] miles away

[D] [Em]
[A] was a dark and a dismal day when last I [D] saw my [A] peg
She had a government band around each [D] hand and another one [Em] round her [A] leg
And another one round her leg me boys there's a big ship [D] at the bay
A [A]-juice says she remember me ten thousand [D] miles [A] away
Then blow you in, sigh ho, a-roving [D] I will go
I'll stay no [A] more on the air and [Bm] shore to hear the [E] fiddlers [A] play
I'm off on the bound in Maine and I won't be back again
For I'm on the move to my own true love ten thousand miles away
Oh the sun may shine through the doubling fog and the lippy [D] run quite clear
And the [A] ocean brighten into wine and I forget my beer
And I forget my beer me boys or the landlord's [D] quarter day
But I'll [A] never forget my own true love ten thousand miles away
Then blow you in, sigh ho, a-roving [D] I will go
I'll stay no [A] more on the air and [D] shore to hear the [E] fiddlers play
[A] I'm off on the bound in Maine and I won't be [D] back again
For [A] I'm on the move to my own true love ten thousand [D] miles [A] away
Then blow you in, sigh ho, a-roving [D] I will go
I'll [A] stay no more on the air [Bm] and shore to hear the [A] fiddlers play
I'm off on the bound in Maine and I won't be [D] back again
For [A] I'm on the move to my own true love ten thousand [D] miles away
