[Verse 1]
 G               C  D
[tab]     C              D
Ten thousand times adieu

        C              G        Em
I'll be thinking of my own true love

        Am        D        C
I'll be thinking, dear, of you
[Verse 2]
            G               C       D
Will you change a ring with me, my love?

         C                  D
Will you change a ring with me?

        C           G      Em
It will be a token of our love

     Am    D      C
When I am far at sea
[Verse 3]
     G          C        D
When I am far away from home

        C                D
And you know not where I am

     C              G        Em
Love letters I will write to you

     Am    D       C
From every foreign strand
[Verse 4]
         G             C       D
When the farmer boys return at night

          C                       D
They will tell their girls fine tales

   C                     G Em
Of all that they've been doing

    Am      D      C
All day out in the fields
[Verse 5]
       G                  C        D
Of the wheat and hay that they cut down

          G                 D
Sure it's all that they can do

      C                    G         Em
While we poor jolly, jolly hearts of oak

     Am         D        C
Must plough the seas all through
[Verse 6]
    G               C        D
And when we return again, my love

       C                 D
To our own dear native shores

     C               G       Em
Fine stories we will tell to you

       Am           D      C
How we ploughed the oceans o'er
[Verse 7]
           G              C      D
And we'll make the alehouses to ring

        C                   D
And the taverns, they will roar

    C              G      Em
And when our money is all gone

           Am    D       C
Sure we'll go to sea for more
