[N] [Am] A Newfoundland sailor went walking [A] on the strand,
[G] He spied a pretty fair young [E] maid and took her by the [A] hand.
[G] Oh, will you go to Newfoundland along with me?

But the answer [A] that she [Ab] gave to him was, Oh, no, not [A] I!
[Am]
[A] If I were to [Ab] marry you, on [Em] me it would be [A] the blame.
Your friends and relations would [D] scorn me to [A] shame.
If you [G] were born of [A] noble blood [D] and me of [A] low degree,
Do you think [D] that I could marry you?
[E] It's, oh, no, [Am] not me!
Six months being over and [G] seven [A] coming nigh,
This [G] pretty fair young maiden [A] she [D] began to look so [A] shy.
Her [G] corsets would not meet [A] and her [D] apron would not [A] tie.
Made her [C] think on all the times [A] when she [Em] said, Oh, no, [A] not I!
[Am] Eight months being over and [G] nine [Em] coming [A] on,
This [G] pretty fair young maiden [A] she [D] brought for the [A] sun.
She [G] wrote the letter to [A] her love to [D] come most [A] eagerly,
But the answer that he [Am] gave to her was, [Em] Oh, no, [A] not me!

And think on [Bm]
all the [Am] times when you said, Oh, no, not I!
So come, my pretty fair maid, so [G] warning take [A] my knee.
[G] Don't ever put your cross [A] in the [D] green willow [A] tree,
For the [G] leaves they will [A] wither and [D] the root [G] it will [A] die.
