_ _ _ _ _ As I [F#] roped out [C#] one evening [A#m] _ fair, _ _ it beamed [C#] the summertime [G#] to take [C#] the air.
_ _ I spied [A#m] a sailor and [G#] a [C#] lady _ gay, _ _ and I [A#m] stood to listen, _ and I stood to listen to hear what
[G#] they would say.
_ _ He said, fair [D#] lady, [C#] why do you [A#m] _ _
roam?
For the day is spent and the [C#] night is _ _ _ all.
She heaved a sigh while the [G#] tears did _ _ _ [C#] roll.
For my [A#] dark-eyed sailor, for my dark-eyed sailor, [G#] so young and stout [C#] and _ [F#] bold.
[C#] _
This ever [F#]-long year [C#] since you left [A#m] this _ land, _ [C#] a ring he took from off [F#] his lily [C#]-white _ hand.
_ One half [A#m] of the lady is [G#] still here [C#] with _ me, _ _ but [A#m] the others [C#] roll her, but the [F#] others [C#] roll her [G#] at the bottom of the sea. _ _
He said, [F#] you may drive [C#] them out of your [A#m] _
mind, _ some other [C#] young man you [F#] will [C#] surely find. _
_ Love turns [A#m] the starry dancing [G#] cold as snow, _ _ _ like [A#] a winter's [C#] morning, like a winter's morning, the hills go white with snow. _ _ _ _
_ _ [F#] _ _ [C#] _ _ _ [A#m] _

_ _ [F#] _ [C#] She _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
said, [F#] I'll never [C#] forsake my [A#m]
dear, _ _ _ although we're _ parted [F#] this many [C#] a year. _
_ Then till [A#m] he wore a [G#] dandel-rake [C#] like you, _ _ _ you induced a maiden, you induced [F#] a [C#] maiden _ to slide the jacket blue.
[F#] _ _ [C#] _
One half [F#] of the ring [C#] did young William [A#m] show.
_ _ She ran [C#] distracted _ in [F#] grief and [C#] _ _ [A#] _
[C#] woe, saying, William, [A#m] will my half-golden _ _ scroll? _
For my dark-eyed [C#] sailor, for my dark [F#]-eyed [C#] sailor has proved his [G#] old boy [C#] bold.
_ _ And there is a [F#] cross you slide under, [A#m] _
Lee, _ this cross was married and does agree, _ _ so [A#m] mays be loyal when you're out [C#] that sea.
_ _ _ For [A#m] a cloud [C#] in the morning, for a starry morning _ brings in a [G#]
starry [C#] day. _ _ _ _ _ _
