Judy Collins - Sailor's Life CAPO: 4th Fret [Intro] D [Chorus]
Oh, a Csailor's life is a Dweary life For he Crobs the girls of Dtheir delight
Causes them to weep, causes them to mourn
GLoss of a true love, Dnever to return
[Verse 1]
Oh Cfather, father Dbuild me a boat And Con the world's oceans DI will float
Hail each captain as I pass by
GThere I'll ask for my sailor Dboy
[Verse 2]
Oh Ccaptain, captain Dtell me true Does Cmy own Willie Dsail with you?
Tell me soon to give me joy
GNone will I have but my sailor Dboy
[Verse 3]
Oh Cno, kind lady, Dhe's not here He Cdrowned in the gulf and we Dburied him there
Upon the island as we passed by
GThere we left your sailor Dboy
[Verse 4]
Oh, she Crung her hands and Dtore her hair Just Clike some lady in Dgreat despair
Called for a chair to sit her down
GPenningdon for to write it Ddown
[Verse 5]
Oh, Cdig my grave wide and Ddeep Put a Cmarble stone at the Dhead and feet
On my grave a turtle dove
GTell the world I died for my Dlove
[Chorus]
Oh, a Csailor's life is a Dweary life For he Crobs the girls of Dtheir delight
Causes them to weep, causes them to mourn
GLoss of a true love, Dnever to return
