Go To Sea No More

A quick go at the traditional sea shanty "Go to sea no more" made famous by The Dubliners. 
This is the original version.

     F       Dm        C    Am      Dm    C     Dm   (C - Dm)
When first I landed in Liverpool, I went upon a spree
   Am     C     Dm       F         Dm       C           F
Me money alas I spent it fast, got drunk as drunk could be
    Dm           C     Dm      F           Dm          C      F
And when that me money was all gone, 'twas then that I wanted more
      Dm          F        C           Am      Dm    C        Dm  (C - Dm)
But a man must be blind to make up his mind to go to sea once more


     F     Am         C        Dm    C        Dm  (C - Dm)
Once more, boys, once more, to go to sea once more
      Dm          F        C           Am      Dm    C        Dm  (C - Dm)
But a man must be blind to make up his mind to go to sea once more


  F         Dm         C   Am        Dm       C       Dm   (C - Dm)
I spent the night with Angeline, too drunk to roll in bed
   Am        C          Dm    F           Dm           C        F
Me watch was new and me money too, in the morning with them she fled
    Dm   C          Dm      F          Dm          C       F
And as I walked the streets about, the whores they all did roar
      Dm        F                C     Am           Dm    C        Dm  (C - Dm)
There goes Jack Strapp, the poor sailorlad, he must go to sea once more


     F     Am         C        Dm    C        Dm  (C - Dm)
Once more, boys, once more, to go to sea once more
      Dm        F                C     Am           Dm    C        Dm  (C - Dm)
There goes Jack Strapp, the poor sailorlad, he must go to sea once more
 

    F    Dm         C       Am       Dm           C      Dm   (C - Dm)
And as I walked the streets about, I met with the Rapper Brown
  Am        C      Dm      F         Dm        C         F
I asked him for to take me on and he looked at me with a frown
   Dm        C        Dm       F        Dm     C        F
He said last time you was paid off with me you could no score
         Dm         F               C         Am               Dm          C        Dm  (C - Dm)
But I'll give you a chance and I'll take your advance and I'll send you to sea once more


     F     Am         C        Dm    C        Dm  (C - Dm)
Once more, boys, once more, to go to sea once more
         Dm         F               C         Am               Dm          C        Dm  (C - Dm)
But I'll give you a chance and I'll take your advance and I'll send you to sea once more


    F            Dm         C       Am   Dm            C      Dm   (C - Dm)
He shipped me on board of a whaling ship bound for the arctic seas
          Am         C                Dm        F        Dm      C         F
Where the cold winds blow through the frost and snow and Jamaica rum would freeze
    Dm       C            Dm           F            Dm           C        F
But worse to bear, I'd no hard weather gear for I'd spent all me money on shore
      Dm          F           C           Am             Dm    C      Dm  (C - Dm)
'twas then that I wished that I was dead and could go to sea no more


   F     Am       C        Dm    C      Dm  (C - Dm)
No more, boys, no more, to go to sea no more
      Dm          F           C           Am             Dm    C      Dm  (C - Dm)
'twas then that I wished that I was dead and could go to sea no more


   F        Dm       C         Am       Dm     C     Dm   (C - Dm)
So come all you bold seafaring men, who listen to me song
Am       C        Dm        F           Dm       C      F
When you come off them long trips, I'll have you not go wrong
     Dm    C          Dm        F               Dm       C         F
Take my advice, drink no strong drink, don't go sleeping with them whores
    Dm      F                 C            Am      Dm    C      Dm  (C - Dm)
Get married instead and spend all night in bed and go to sea no more

 
   F     Am       C        Dm    C      Dm  (C - Dm)
No more, boys, no more, to go to sea no more
    Dm      F                 C            Am      Dm    C      Dm  (C - Dm)
Get married instead and spend all night in bed and go to sea no more
