[Intro] Cmaj7 C C2 x8 [Verse 1]
  C           Em/B     Am
I cannot get to my love if I would die;

        Dm        C                F
For the waters of Tyne run between her and me

    Am          F           Dm         F
And here I must stand with a tear in my 'ee

     C                      F            C
Both sighing and sickly, my true love to see
[Verse 2]
    C             Em/B    Am                Dm
Oh, where is the boatman, oh my bonny hinney?

    Dm           C                     F
Oh, where is the boatman? Bring him to me

   Am      F        Dm      F
To ferry me over the Tyne to my honey

    C                    F           C
And I will remember the boatman and thee
[Instrumental] C F/D C F/D [Bridge]
     F                C       Csus2         C
It's starting to rain and I'm froze to the marrow

  F           C          Csus2      C
I see her as plainly as she can see me

     F               C               Csus2         C
It's less than a mile between North Shields and Jarrow

        F               C          Gsus4/D Gsus4/E Gsus4/F Gsus4/E
And the ship of my heart's carriеd out

      Gsus4/D Gsus4/E Gsus4/F Gsus4/E
To the sea
[Verse 3]
    C            Em/B        Am
Oh, bring me a boatman, I'll give any money

    Dm           G         F
And you for your trouble rewarded shall be

   Am       F       Dm      F
To ferry me over the Tyne to my honey

   C                    F              C
Or scull her across the rough river to me
[Outro] Cmaj7 C C2 x8 C
