[Verse]
N.C.                                 
There once was a ship that put to sea
N.C.                                         
And the name of the ship was the Billy o' Tea
N.C.                                   
The winds blew hard her bow dipped down
Ab7                    
Blow my bully boys blow
                       Eb7 
Soon may the Wellerman come
                      Eb7        
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
Eb7                              
One day when the tonguin' is done
F7                       C7
We'll take our leave and go
      C7                           
She'd not been two weeks from shore
C7                                 
When down on her a right whale bore
            C7                        
The captain called all hands and swore
F7                      Ab7
He'd take that whale in tow
     Ab7                   
Soon may the Wellerman come
F7                               
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
                 Ebm             
One day when the tonguin' is done
F7                         
We'll take our leave and go

Dadadadada What will we do with a drunken sailor
     Ebm                             
What will we do with a drunken sailor
Fm                     F7            
What will we do with a drunken sailor

Early in the morning
        F7                          
Put him in the brig until he's sober
                    F7              
Put him in the brig until he's sober
               F7                   
Put him in the brig until he's sober


[Chorus]

Early in the morning
F7  F          F7       
Way hay and up she rises
        Eb7 Ebm    F7   
Way hay and up she rises
F7                      
Way hay and up she rises
C            Fm     
Early in the morning
       Ebm                               
Oh the wind was foul and the sea ran high
Bb7              Ebm      
Leave her Johnny leave her
Ab7                      Bb        Ebm
She shipped it green and none went by 
                  Bb       Ebm      
And it's time for ■  us to leave her
                       Ab7
Leave her Johnny leave her
   Ab7                       
Oh leave her Johnny leave her
                  Eb7      Ebm             Eb7 
For the voyage is long and the winds don't blow
              Bb7       Ebm      
And it's time for us to leave her


[Verse]
E                                
Cape Cod ships ain't got no sails
     E             
Haul away haul away
E                                          
They'd all blown off in the Northeast gales
                         E        
And we're bound away for Australia
         E                         
So heave her up my bully bully boys
     E             
Haul away haul away
E                                      
Heave her up and don't you make a noise
          E                       
And we're bound away for Australia

     Em      
Away Santiana
                                    Db 
And an old salty yank for a captain too

          E               
Along the plains of Mexico
E                       
Santiana fought for gold
     E       
Away Santiana
                                     Db  
Around Cape Horn through the ice and snow
          Db              
Along the plains of Mexico
                                 Em
Well heave 'er up and away we'll go
     Em      
Away Santiana
E                             
Heave 'er up and away we'll go
          E7        Gb7   
Along the plains of Mexico
E7                            B7
So leave her Johnny off we'll go
            E7     D7        E7    
The drunken sailor Wellerman whaler
D7    Em             
Bound away for Mexico
