[Verse 1]
Am G F G Am
When first I landed in Liverpool, I went upon the spree
Am C/G Am G
With money at last, I spent it fast, I got drunk as drunk could be,
C/G G Am G
But when my money was all gone, it was then that I wanted more,
Am G F G Am
But a man must be blind to make up his mind to go to sea once more.
[Chorus]
C G Am G
Once more, once more, go to sea once more,
Am G
But a man must be blind to make up his mind,
F G Am
To go to sea once more.
[Verse 2]
Am G F G Am
And as I walked down London Road I met with a Rapper Brown,
Am C/G Am G
I asked him if he'd take me in and he looked at me with a frown,
C/G G Am G
He said: "Last time you was paid off, to me you chalked no score,
Am G F G Am
But I'll give you a chance and I'll take your advance, and I'll send you to sea once more."
[Chorus]
C G Am G
Once more, once more, send you to sea once more,
Am G
But I'll give you a chance and I'll take your advance
F G Am
And I'll send you to go to sea once more.
[Verse 3]
Am G F G Am
I shipped on board of a whaling barque, we were bound for the Greenland seas
Am C/G Am G
Where cold winds blow through frost and snow, why Jamaica rum would freeze
C/G G Am G
And worst to bear, I'd no hard weather gear, as I'd spent all my money ashore
Am G F G Am
It was then that I wished that I was dead and could go to sea no more
[Chorus]
C G Am G
No more, no more, go to sea no more
Am G
It was then that I wished that I was dead
F G Am
And could go to sea no more
[Verse 4]
Am G F G Am
Some times we're catching whales, my lads, some times we're catching none
Am C/G Am G
With a twenty-foot oar stuck in your paw, from four o'clock in the morn
C/G G Am G
And as the shades of night roll on and you rest on your weary oar,
Am G F G Am
It was then that I wished that I was dead and could go to sea no more
[Chorus]
C G Am G
No more, no more, go to sea no more
Am G
It was then that I wished that I was dead
F G Am
And could go to sea no more
[Verse 5]
Am G F G Am
So come all you hard weather sailing lads, who listen to my song
Am C/G Am G
When you get back from those long trips, I'd have you not go wrong
C/G G Am G
Take my advice, drink no strong drink, don't you knock on that brothel door
Am G F G Am
But get married instead and spend all night in bed, and go to sea no more.
[Chorus]
C G Am G
No more, no more, go to sea no more
Am G
But get married instead and spend all night in bed,
F G Am
And go to sea no more.
