My Johnny was a shoemaker and dearly he loved me

My Johnny was a shoemaker, but now he's gone to sea

     Em            Dm
With pitch an-d .. tar to soil his hands

       Em                      C      Em
And to sail across the sea, .. stormy sea

    D      A         Bm     Em  G Am
And sail a-cross the stormy sea.

His jacket was a deep sky blue and curly was his hair

His jacket was a deep sky blue, it was, I do de-clare

       Em                     Dm
For to reef the topsails up a-gainst the mast

And sail a-cross the stormy sea.

Some-day he'll be a captain bold with a sword and a spyglass too

And when he has a gallant captain's sword

He'll come home and marry me, .. marry me

           A        C     Em Am
He'll come home and marry me.
