A                        D
I am a young fellow who sails a salt sea

E                        A
 Byhearted wherever I roam

A                         D
 Until thine sweet Anne from the town of Tralee

E                        A
 And now I think only of home

A                        D
 When I am out on the ocean there far

E                        A
 I dream that I’m holding her tight

A                        D
 For her I would raid the moon and the stars

E                       A
 Just to lie in her arms through the night

D         E            A             A
 Oh if I had the wings of an eagle

A        D            E          E
 I'd fly to my love on the shore

A        D            E            E
 And never again would I leave her

B           E           A
 For she is the girl I adore

A                        D
 They married that spring and contented were they

E                        A
 As only true lovers can be

A                        D
 But his captain did call That he had to obey

E                        A
 And return one last time to the sea

D          E            A             A
 Oh if I had the wings of an eagle

A          D           E              E
 I'd fly to my love on the shore

A          D          E               E
 And never again would I leave her

B             E          A
For she is the girl I adore

A                         D
 A storm it is raging The sails are all torn

E                          A
 Our ship it is far from the land

A                         D
 I grieve for my life Though I face death with scorn

E                         A
 But I grieve ten times more for sweet Anne

D           E          A             A
 Oh if I had the wings of an eagle

A           D         E             E
 I'd fly to my love on the shore

A           D         E             E
 And never again would I leave her

B             E                A
 For she is the girl I adore

 Sometimes in the night She'll go down to the sea

F#                        B

Oh if I had the wings of an eagle

 I'd fly to my love on the shore

B        E           F#            F#
 And never again would I leave her
