The Kingston Trio - Blow the candle out

^EmWhen I sailed into Portland town, I called upon my dear ^EmHer window held a candle, it's light shone bright and clear I ^Gwalked up to her doorstep, I knew she was with^Emin Her candle told the story, boys, and I was ^Dhome a^Emgain

^EmI like her good behaviour, I like her easy way ^EmI cannot sleep contented, the night seems like the day To ^Gsail in muddy weather, it makes me want to ^Emshout And roll her in my arms, boys, and blow the ^Dcandle ^Emout

^EmWhen I got home to Portland, 'twas as I said before ^EmThe candle at the window and my love at the door We ^Glet the candle go, boys, we had no care or ^Emstrife We went to see the parson and she be^Dcame my ^Emwife

^EmAnd when we have a baby, boys, we'll name him after me ^EmShe'll keep him neat and kiss him and rock him on her knee And ^Gwhen this trip is over, I'll sail no more a^Embout Yes, I'll remain in Portland, Maine, to blow the ^Dcandle ^Emout
