Sally Brown - Planxty chords
Start Jamming...
[A] A little bit different this time anyway.
This next song is a sea shanty.
And where I [N] come from, they don't have many sea shanties.
The nearest thing they have [G] compared to sea shanties is horse boxes.
[E] And [A] chimney [Am] vans and stuff like that.
[Dm] But this is a sea shanty I first heard about 14 or 15 [Am] years ago
when I first [B] came to Dublin.
[Am] When my life took [Dm] a big change and I came to the capital
and [A] heard people singing sea shanties in Cable Street.
[Bm] Which I thought was odd.
But [A] anyway, this is a sea shanty called Sally Brown.
Sung by Andy Irvine, late of Sweeney's Men, Flankstee and Paul Brady.
Start it off there.
[D] I shipped on board of the Liverpool liner
Way, hey, roll and go
All [E] night and we roll till the day
Go to spend my money along with [A] Sally Brown
[E]
[A] [Bm] [A]
[D] [E] [A]
[A] Bradley [E] Brown is a nice young [A] lady
Way, [E] hey, [A] roll and go
And we roll [E] all night and we roll [A] till the day
Go to spend [E] my money [A] along with Sally Brown
She's odd and she's dark but [E] she's not too [A] shady
[Bm] Way, hey, [A] roll and go
And we roll [D] all night [E] and we roll [A] till the day
Go to spend my money [A] along with Sally Brown
Night, [E] no, it's a [A] harry sailor
[E] Way, hey, roll [D] and go
[A] And we [D] roll all night [E] and we roll [A] till the day
I go to spend my money [E] along with Sally [A] Brown
She wants to marry [E] a one [A]-legged captain
[E] Way, hey, roll [A] and go
And we roll [D] all night [E] and we roll [A] till the day
I go to spend my money [E] along with Sally [A] Brown
And
[Bm] [D] [A]
[D] [E] [A] [E]
[A] it wouldn't wet me [E] so I'd ship [A] across the water
[Bm] Way, [E] hey, [A] roll and go
And we roll [D] all night [E] and we roll [A] till the day
Go to spend my money [E] along with Sally [A] Brown
Now I am [E] courting [A] Sally's daughter
[E] Way, hey, roll [A] and go
And we [D] roll all [E] night and we roll [A] till the day
Go to spend my money [E] along with [A] Sally Brown
I shift [E] on board of a Liverpool liner
Way, hey, roll and go
And we roll all night and we roll till the day
Go to spend my money along with [A] Sally
