[Intro]
---------------------
Cm | A#6 

[Verse 1]
---------------------
G#maj7/D# A#6 Cm     Cm                A#6          G#maj7/D# A#6    Cm
             When first I landed in Liverpool, I went   upon the spree
                    D#/A#                          Cm                   A#6
With money at last, I spent  it fast, I  got drunk as drunk could be
       D#            A#6                  Cm                 A#6 G6/G#
But  when my money was all gone, it was then that I wanted more
      Cm                       A#6              G#maj7/D# A#6      Cm
But a man must be blind to make  up his mind to go     to sea once more

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
     D#/A#      A#6   Cm             A#6 G6/G#
Once more, once more, go to sea once more
      Cm                       A#6              G#maj7/D# A#6      Cm
But a man must be blind to make  up his mind to go     to sea once more

[Verse 2]
---------------------
    Cm               A#6           G#maj7/D#     A#6    Cm
And as I walked down London Road I met    with a Rapper Brown
                    D#/A#             Cm                  A#6
I asked him if he'd take me in and he looked at me with a frown
   D#                   A#6              Cm                A#6  A#6/B
He said, "Last time you was paid off, to me you chalked no score
         Cm                         A#6
But I'll give you a chance and I'll take your advance
         G#maj7/D#     A#6      Cm
And I'll send   you to sea once more."

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
     D#/A#      A#6   Cm                   A#6 A#6/B
Once more, once more, send you to sea once more
         Cm                         A#6
But I'll give you a chance and I'll take your advance
         G#maj7/D#     A#6      Cm
And I'll send   you to sea once more.

[Verse 3]
---------------------
  Cm                    A#6                     G#maj7/D#      A#6       Cm
I shipped on board of a whaling barque, we were bound  for the Greenland seas
                              D#/A#                 Cm              A#6
Where cold winds blow through frost and snow, why Jamaica rum would freeze
    D#                    A#6                       Cm                  A#6  A#6/B
And worst to bear, I'd no hard weather gear, as I'd spent all my money ashore
       Cm                      A#6                  G#maj7/D# A#6    Cm
It was then that I wished that I was dead and could go     to sea no more

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
   D#/A#    A#6   Cm           A#6 A#6/B
No more, no more, go to sea no more
       Cm                      A#6                  G#maj7/D# A#6    Cm
It was then that I wished that I was dead and could go     to sea no more

[Verse 4]
---------------------
     Cm                   A#6                   G#maj7/D#    A#6      Cm
Some times we're catching whales, my lads, some times  we're catching none
                            D#/A#             Cm                      A#6
With a twentyfoot oar stuck in your paw, from four o'clock in the morn
    D#               A#6                   Cm                 A#6 A#6/B
And as the shades of night roll on and you rest on your weary oar
       Cm                      A#6                  G#maj7/D# A#6    Cm
It was then that I wished that I was dead and could go     to sea no more



[Verse 5]
---------------------
        Cm                      A#6               G#maj7/D# A#6  Cm
So come all of you hard weather sailing lads, who listen to my song
                       D#/A#                 Cm              A#6
When you get back from those long trips, I'd have you not go wrong
     D#               A#6                        Cm                    A#6 A#6/B
Take my advice, drink no strong drink, don't you knock on that brothel door
        Cm                        A#6                   G#maj7/D# A#6    Cm
But get married instead and spend all night in bed, and go     to sea no more

[Chorus (4)]
---------------------
   D#/A#    A#6   Cm           A#6 A#6/B
No more, no more, go to sea no more
        Cm                        A#6                   G#maj7/D# A#6    Cm
But get married instead and spend all night in bed, and go     to sea no more
   D#/A#    A#6   Cm           A#6 A#6/B
No more, no more, go to sea no more
        Cm                        A#6                   G#maj7/D# A#6    Cm
But get married instead and spend all night in bed, and go     to sea no more
