^DI set to sea as a ^Gcountry ^Dlad To ^Gmake a ^Adream come ^Dtrue A full-blown wind took a ^Ghard ^Dastern That ^Gblew from ^ATimbuk^Dtu We went down like an ^Ganchor ^Dchain I ^Gthought that ^Awe would ^Ddrown Swam belly up and ^Gcried like ^Dhell Well ya ^Gcan't hold a ^Agood man ^Ddown

[Refrain]

I ^Growed like Billy-o ^DMade the scilly oh's ^AEnded up in the ^BmRose and Crown ^GDrank the night away ^DSeems like yesterday ^AWhen we went down

[Chorus]

Now we're ^Gway-^Doh! Can't ^Ablow the man ^Bmdown ^GWay-^Doh! Can't ^Ablow the man down ^GHey-^Dyo! Can't ^Ahold the man, ^Bmhold the man ^Gdown ^ABoys, hold this man ^Ddown!

[Verse 2]

'Twas devil's torment, ^Gtack and ^Drum That ^Gkept the ^Afear at ^Dbay But a navy sail on the ^Gstarboard ^Dbow Was ^Ggetting ^Ain our ^Dway A broadside rained like a ^Gfire from ^Dhell We ^Gmade the ^Abeggars ^Dpay But we did not see the ^Ggiant ^Dwave That ^Gtook our ^Akeel ^Daway

[Refrain]

So ^Gin the drink we go ^DSink or swimmy oh ^ADavey Jones tried to ^Bmtake us down ^GWreckage drift away ^DSoggy castaway ^ARunnin' aground

[Chorus]

Now we're ^Gway-^Doh! Can't ^Ablow the man ^Bm(blow the man) down ^GWay-^Doh! Can't ^Ablow the man down ^GHey-^Dyo! Can't ^Ahold the man, ^Bmhold the man ^Gdown ^ABoys, hold this man ^Ddown!

[Verse 3]

I landed on a ^Gdesert ^Disle And ^Gstowed ^Aaboard a ^Dsail Made a life as a ^Gcabin ^Dboy ^GUntil we ^Ahit the ^Dwhale

[Chorus]x3

Now we're ^Gway-^Doh! Can't ^Ablow the man ^Bm(blow the man) down ^GWay-^Doh! Can't ^Ablow the man down ^GHey-^Dyo! Can't ^Ahold the man, ^Bmhold the man ^Gdown ^ABoys, hold this man ^Ddown!

[Instrumental]
