Verse 1
G#m
C#
F#
A sailing trade, it is a weary life
G#m
F#
It robs young maids of their heart's delight
It leaves them all for to sigh and moan,
G#m
F#
To think their true lovers will ne 'er return.
G#m
F#
Oh, Father, Father, build me a boat
And on the ocean I am bound to float
F#
And every sailship that I pass by,
G#m
C#
F#
I will inquire of my sailor boy.
G#m
F#
She was not sailing long
upon the deep,
A fleet of Frenchmen she chanced to meet.
G#
F#
C#
Oh, Captain, Captain, come tell me true,
F#
G#
does my love
C#
F#
William sail on board with you?
What sort of clothes does
your true love wear?
E
F#
What color being your true love's hair?
His jacket's blue and his trousers white,
G#m
C#
F#
His curly locks tied to his waistband tight.
G#m
F#
Oh no, fair maid, William is not here.
He is drowned, and I greatly fear.
It was last evening the storm rolled by,
And parted William from

our topmast high.

F#
She's wrung her hands an
E
F#
d she tore her hair
She's cursed herself in
most modest fare
F#
A little boat against the rock she's run

How can I live now that my
love has gone
With pen and paper she's
wrote a song
She's wrote it wide and
she has wrote it long.
F#
At every line she did shed a tear,
C#
F#
C#
and every verse she did cry,
F#
William dear,
Come dig my grave long,
and dig it deep,
F#
E
F#
and over me let true lovers weep,
and on my breast
F#
Place a snow white dove
G#m
C#
F#
to show the world that I died for love.
