A
I’ll tell you ’bout my night on shore, if you will lend an
!
ear

!
I stepped into a cabaret to get myself a
!
beer
A
A pretty girl sat all alone and needed compa
!
ny
!
But when I got close, this gal arose, this is what she said to
!
me
Now she said
A
whoa sailor be
D
careful what you do
In your eye there’s a gleam and to me it seems your
A
just like all
the
F#
rest
With a
!
wolfish eye and a line that’s sly, then a
!
salior’s
at his
A
best.

A
Now look here babe you’ve got me wrong , I’m not that sort of
!

guy
!
I just got back from across the sea where there are no gals
!
arie.
A
Now let me talk to you a while I’m sure you’ll see my
!
way
!
When I went to spout she turned about this is what she had to
!
say
Now she said
A
whoa sailor I’ve
D
heard that line before
You’ll look into my eyes and tell me lies and
A
tales of the seven
F#
seas,
But a
!
sailor’s full of that kinda bull so
!
don’t hand it to
A
me

A
Oh pretty girl you’ve let me down you’ve broken my poor
!
heart
!
And oh how it hurt when you had to spout that last sad
!

remark
A
I said I think I have a drink and I broke out six month’s

pay

!
With a wide open eyes she breathed a sigh this time she had to
!
say
Now she said
A
oh sailor boy I
D
think you’ve won my heart
Well she was right neat and she sure was sweet but I knew she was that
F#
sort.
But she’s
!
not all to blame ’cause it’s a sailor’s aim to have a
!
girl in every
A
port.
