Stan Rogers - Leave Her, Johnny chords
Start Jamming...
[A#] [D#] I [F#] thought I heard the [D#] old man say,
[E] Leave her, Johnny, [D] leave her,
It's a [A] long hard pull to the next day,
And it's [F#m] time for us [A#] to leave her.
[E]
Leave her, Johnny, [Dm] leave her,
Oh, [D] leave her, Johnny, [F#] leave her,
For the [A#m] voyage is done and [F#] the winds don't blow,
[F#m] And it's time for [A#m] us to leave her.
Oh, the [D] winds were foul and the [C#] work was hard,
[A] Leave her, Johnny, [D]
leave her,
[F#] From the Liverpool dock to the London yard,
[A] And it's [F#m] time for us to [A#] leave her.
[A] Leave her, [D]
Johnny, leave her,
Oh, [Bm] leave her, Johnny, leave her,
For the voyage is [B] done and the [F#m] winds don't blow,
And it's time [A] for us [D] to leave her.
[F#] Ah, the skipper was bad, but the mate was worse,
[A] Leave her, [D] Johnny, leave her,
It'd [A] blow you down with a [D] spike and a curse,
And it's [F#m] time for [A] us to [F#] leave her.
[A] Leave her, Johnny, leave her,
[G] Oh, leave her, [D]
Johnny, [C#] leave her,
For the voyage is [B] done and the [F#] winds don't blow,
And [F#m] it's time for us to [D] leave her.
It [F#] was rotten meat and [C#] mouldy bread,
[E] Leave [F#] her, Johnny, [D] leave her,
[C#m] You'd eat it or you'd starve to [D] death,
[F#] And it's time for us to leave [F#m] her.
[A] Leave her, [D] Johnny, leave her,
[B] Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave [F#] her,
For the voyage [F#m] is done and the winds don't blow,
And [F#] it's time for [A] us to [D] leave her.
Well, it's [F#] time for us to say [A] goodbye,
Leave [E] her, Johnny, leave [D]
her,
For now [A] those [F#] pumps are [A#] all pumped [F#m] dry,
And it's time for us to leave her.
[E] Leave [A] her, Johnny, [D] leave her,
[E] Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave [D] her,
[E] For the voyage is done [B] and the winds [F#] don't blow,
And [F#m] it's time for [A] us to [D] leave her.
[A#m] We'll see you tomorrow.
Thank [A#] you very much.
[A#m]
