[Em] [F#m]
[Bm] There was a fair maiden, [A] she lived [Bm] all alone, she lived [A] all alone [G] on the [F#m] shore, oh, oh.
[Em]
Could [F#m] she [G] quite be too calm or [F#m] too mild, [Bm] but to wander alone on the shore, [A] shore, shore,
[Bm] to wander [A]
alone [Bm] on the shore, oh, oh.
There was a big captain [F#m] who sailed a [Bm] foreign ship, and the weather [F#m] was steady [G] and [F#m] feral,
[Em] I shall die, [F#m] I shall die this [G] [F#m]
day, [G] if I [Bm] can't have that maiden on the shore, [A] shore, shore,
[Bm] if I can't [A] have that maiden [G] on the shore, oh, oh.
[Bm] After many a night's waiting they brought her on board, they seated [A]
her down on [Gm] a chair, [F#m]
oh,
he invited her down [G] to [D] him [E] alone,
[Bm] farewell to all sorrow and care, [A]
oh, [B] farewell to [A]
all sorrow [G] and care, oh.

Dancing with the sun, this fair maiden cried, [Em] this captain [F#m] was weeping [G]
[F#m] for you, [Em] she sighed
and [F#m] so sweetly, [G] so softly, [F#m] so [E] sweetly, [Bm] she sighed, captain and sailors to [A] sleep, [Bm] oh,
captain [A] and sailors [G] to sleep, oh.
[F#m] [Em] She rocked them off, she rocked them off well, she rocked the [F#m]
last cross that [G] my [D] hair [F#m] broke,
[Em]
captain [F#m] brought a sword, [G]
she who [F#m] doesn't know her, [Bm] she rode away back to the shore, [F#m] shore, shore,
[Bm] she rode [A] away back [G] to the shore, oh, oh.
[Bm] Oh, the men, they were mad, yet the men, they were sad, they were deeply [A] so down [G] and
[F#m] arrow,
[Em] to see her [F#m] go away without [G] [F#m] his forget, [A#m] [Bm]
rings and her, things and her fine [A] arrow, [G]
rings [D] and her, things and [Em] her fine [G] arrow.

[B] Oh, don't be so sad as [Bm] I'm down in this bed, I knew you [A] should have an [G]
[F#m] arrow,
[D]
[Em] I sang [F#m] you to sleep, but [G] I robbed [F#m] you of well [A#m] ahead, [Bm] well, again I'm a maid on the shore, [A] shore, shore,
[G]
[A] again I'm a maid [G] on the shore, oh.
