[E] Upon Monsalor's mourning, I [N] carefully did stray
by the walls of Wapping, where I met a sailor gay
with a young lass, who seemed to be in pain
go, I fear you'll never return again
cupid, white as stain or [B] glittering gold
There is nothing can console me, but my jolly sailor boy
[E] His hair it hangs in ringlets, his eyes as black as coal
My happiness attend him, wherever he may go

_ _ [E] Upon Monsalor's mourning, I [N] carefully did stray
_ Down by the walls of Wapping, _ where I met a sailor gay
_ _ [E] _ Conversing with a young lass, who seemed to be in pain
_ Saying, William, when you go, I fear you'll never return again
_ My heart is pierced by _ cupid, white as stain or [B] glittering gold
There is nothing can console me, but my jolly sailor boy _
_ [E] His hair it hangs in ringlets, his eyes as black as coal _
My happiness attend him, wherever he may go
From Tower Hill to Blackwall, [N] I'll wander, weep and moan
All for my jolly [E] sailor, _ until he sails home
_ My [Em] heart is [F] pierced by _ cupid, white as stain or glittering gold
_ There is [B] nothing can console me, but my jolly sailor boy _
My [E] father is a merchant, the truth I now will tell _
And in great London City, _ in opulence doth dwell
_ His fortune doth exceed three hundred thousand [B] gold
And he frowns upon his daughter, _ [Em] who loves a sailor bold
The [E] big for his riches, his merchandise [B] in gold
True love has grafted my heart, give me my sailor bold
_ [E] My heart is pierced by cupid, [N] white as stain or glittering gold
There is [B] nothing can [F]
console me, but my jolly [B] sailor boy
Should he return in poverty, _ from [G] o'er the ocean [B] far
To my tender bosom, [E] I'll press my jolly tie
[G] My sailor is as smiling, as the [B] pleasant month of May
And [E] often we have wandered, through a gloomy _ way
_ Many a pretty blue maid, young girl we did behold _ _
Reclining on the bosom, of her jolly sailor bold
[B] _ My heart is pierced [F] by cupid, white [E] as stain or glittering gold
_ There is nothing can console me, but my jolly [G] sailor boy
_ My name [E] is _ Maria, a merchant's daughter fair _
And I have loved my _ parents, of three thousand pounds a year
_ Come all you pretty fair maids, whoever you [B] may be
Love a jolly sailor, that ploughs a raging sea
I'll up [E] a loft and store, from the year's absence more
[F] And firmly pray, arrive the day, he's [E] never more to roam
My heart is pierced by cupid, white as stain or glittering gold
There is nothing can console me, but my jolly sailor bold
_ My heart is pierced by _ cupid, white as stain or glittering gold
There is nothing can _ console me, but [B] my jolly _ _ sailor _ bold _ _ _
