There was a little _ _ _ _ _ _ ship that sailed on the _ sea, _ _ _ _
_ And she went by the name [C] of Mary D'Aubrigne,
And [G] she sailed upon [Em] the _ low _ [G] and lonesome low,
_ _ _ _ And she sailed upon [Am] the [G] lonesome sea. _ _
_ _ _ _ There was [Em] a little _ _ frailer, [G] _ _ _
_ _ unto his captain said, _
_ _ _ _ _ Oh, _ captain, captain, [C] what you give to me,
If [G] I sink her in the low _ _ _ and lonesome low, _ _ _
_ _ If I sink her in the lonesome _ sea? _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Two hundred dollars _ _ _ I _ will give unto _ _ thee, _ _ _ _
_ And my oldest daughter [C] I'll wed unto you,
[G] If you sink her in the _ low _ _ and lonesome low,
_ _ _ _ _ If you sink her in the lonesome _ _ _ sea.
_ _ _ _ Deep at his _ _ _ _ breast, _ _ and away swam _ _ he,
_ _ _ _ Till he came to the ship [C] of the Turkish Revolution,
[G] And he sunk her in the low _ _ and lonesome low, _ _
_ _ And he sunk her in the lonesome _ sea. _ _ _ _
_ _ Deep at his _ _ _ _ breast, _ _ _ and back swam he, _ _ _
_ _ _ Oh, captain, captain, [C] I want my reward,
For [G] I'll sink you in the low _ _ _ and lonesome low, _ _ _ _
For I'll sink you [D] in the [G] lonesome sea.

_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Deep at his _ _ _ _ breast, and swam with the _ _ tide,
And he bore three oars [C] his own ship's tide,
And [G] he sank her in the _ low _ _ and lonesome _ low,
_ _ _ _ And he sank her in the lonesome _ sea. _ _ _
_ _ _ Deep at his _ _ _ _ _ _ head, _ _ _ and down sank _ he, _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Farewell, farewell [C] to the merry go-retreat,
[G] And he sank her in the low _ _ and lonesome _ low,
_ _ _ _ And sank her in the lonesome sea. _ _ _
