Oh, I thought I heard the old man say,

A                  D
[tab]      G          D        G          D
It's a long hard pull to the next payday,

         D               A    D
and It's time for us to leave her.
[Chorus]
A                  D
Leave her, Johnny, leave her,

    G                  D
Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her.

        G         D            G           Bm
For the voyage is done and the winds don't blow,

and it's time for us to leave her.

Now the winds were foul and the work was hard,

A                  D
Leave her, Johnny, leave her.

      G          D        G          D
From the Liverpool docks to the London yard,

         D               A    D
and It's time for us to leave her.
[Chorus]
A                  D
Leave her, Johnny, leave her,

Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her.

D                         G         D
Now the skipper was bad but the mate was worse,

A                  D
Leave her, Johnny, leave her.

      G          D        G          D
He would cut you down with a swipe and a curse,

         D               A    D
and it's time for us to leave her.
[Chorus]
A                  D

and it's time for us to leave her.

D                         G         D
Now it was rotten meat and moldy bread,

A                  D
Leave her, Johnny, leave her.

      G          D        G          D
You would eat it or you would starve to death,

         D               A    D
And it's time for us to leave her.
[Chorus]
A                  D
Leave her, Johnny, leave her,

and it's time for us to leave her.

Now it's time for us to say farewell,

A                  D
Leave her, Johnny, leave her.

      G          D        G          D
For now those pumps are all pumped dry,

         D               A    D
And it's time for us to leave her.

and it's time for us to leave her.
