[Verse 1]
Sing Bmho! for a brave and a gallant ship
And a fast and a favoring Dbreeze
With a Bmbully good crew and a captain too
To carry me over the Dseas
To Bmcarry me over the seas, me boys
To my true love far Daway
I'm Bmtaking a trip on a Bmgovernment ship
Ten F#mthousand Dmiles Bmaway
[Chorus]
So Bmblow ye winds and blow
And a roving I will F#mgo
I'll Astay no more on Ethis old shore
And Dhear that fiddler Bmplay
I'm Bmoff on a bounding main
And I won't be back F#magain
I'm Ataking a trip on a Egovernment ship
Ten Dthousand miles Bmaway F#m Bm
[Verse 2]
Oh, my Bmown true love was beautiful
My own true love was Dyoung
She had Bmdiamonds in her eyes, my friends
And silvery was her Dtongue
Silvery Bmwas her tongue, oh yes
And the big ship left the Dbay
Fair Bmwell said she, be Bmgood to me Yuri
Ten F#mthousand Dmiles Bmaway
[Chorus]
So Bmblow ye winds and blow
And a roving I will F#mgo
I'll Astay no more on Ethis old shore
And Dhear that fiddler Bmplay
I'm Bmoff on a bounding main
And I won't be back F#magain
I'm Ataking a trip on a Egovernment ship
Ten Dthousand miles Bmaway F#m Bm
[Verse 3]
It's Bmbeen at least a hundred days
Since I last saw me DMeg
She had a Bmgovernment band around one hand
And another one 'round her Dleg
And Bmanother one 'round her leg, me boys
And the big ship left the Dbay
I Bmswore that I'd be Bmtrue to her
Ten F#mthousand Dmiles Bmaway
[Chorus]
So Bmblow ye winds and blow
And a roving I will F#mgo
I'll Astay no more on Ethis old shore
And Dhear that fiddler Bmplay
I'm Bmoff on a bounding main
And I won't be back F#magain
I'm Ataking a trip on a Egovernment ship
Ten Dthousand miles Bmaway F#m Bm
[Verse 4]
Oh, I Bmwish I was a bosun bold
Or a sailor without Dfear
I'd Bmbuild me a boat and away I'd float
And straight to me true love Dsteer
And Bmstraight to me true love steer, me boys
Where the dancin' dolphins Dplay
Where the Bmwhales and sharks are Bmhaving their larks
Ten F#mthousand Dmiles Bmaway
[Chorus]
So Bmblow ye winds and blow
And a roving I will F#mgo
I'll Astay no more on Ethis old shore
And Dhear that fiddler Bmplay
I'm Bmoff on a bounding main
And I won't be back F#magain
I'm Ataking a trip on a Egovernment ship
Ten Dthousand miles Bmaway F#m Bm

[Verse 5]
Well, the Bmsun will shine through the London fog
Or the water running Dclear
Or the Bmocean brine turn into wine
Or I'll forget me Dbeer
Or I'll Bmforget me beer, me boys
On the landlord's quarter-Dpay
But I'll Bmwon't forget me Bmown true love
Ten F#mthousand Dmiles Bmaway
[Chorus]
So Bmblow ye winds and blow
And a roving I will F#mgo
I'll Astay no more on Ethis old shore
