[C] [Dbm]
[Ab] We come on this Luke John B, my grandfather and me
Around Nassau town we [Eb] did roam
Drinking [Ab] all night, got into [Db] a fight
[Ab] Well I feel so broken, [Eb] I wanna [Ab] go home
So I hoist up the John B sail, to see how the mainsail sails
Call for the captain ashore, let me [Eb] go home
Let me [Ab] go home, I wanna [Db] go home
Yeah, [Bbm] yeah, well [Ab] I feel so broken, [Bbm] [Eb] I wanna [Ab] go home
The first mate he got drunk, broke him the captain's drum
The constable had to come and take him [Eb] away
Sheriff [Ab] John Stone, why don't you lead me [Db] along
Well [Ab] I feel so broken, [Db] [Eb] I wanna [Ab] go home
So I hoist up the John B, hoist up the John B
To see how the mainsail sails, to see how the mainsail sails

The poor cook he caught the fish, threw away all my grit
Then he took and he ate up all of my [Eb] corn
Let me [Ab] go home, why don't they let me [Db] go home
