Bm D Bm
All in the Downs the fleet lay moored
A Bm
She was waiting in the wind
Bm D
When black-eyed Susan came on board
A
Saying "where shall I my true-love find?
Bm D Bm
Tell me jovial sailors, tell me true
A
Does my sweet William
Bm F# Bm
Does my sweet William sail among your crew?"
Bm D Bm
Willy, who high upon the yard
A Bm
Rocked by the billows to and fro
Bm D
Soon as then her well-known voice he heard
A
He sighed and cast his eyes below
Bm D Bm
The cords glide swiftly through his glowing hands
A
And quicker than lightning
Bm F# Bm
And quicker than lightning on the deck he stands
A Bm
"Oh Susan, Susan, lovely dear
A Bm
My vows will ever true remain
Bm D
Let me kiss off those falling tears
A
We only part to meet again
Bm D Bm
Change as ye list ye winds, my heart shall be
A
The faithful compass
Bm F# Bm
The faithful compass that shall point to thee"
Bm D Bm
"Believe not what the landsmen say
A Bm
They'll try to tempt thy constant mind
Bm D
They'll say that sailors when away
A
In every port a mistress find
Bm D Bm
Yes, yes, believe them when they tell thee so
A
For thou art present
Bm F# Bm
For thou art present wheresoe'er I go"
Bm D Bm
"If to fair India's coast I sail
A Bm
Thine eyes are seen in diamonds bright
Bm D
Thy breath is Africa's spicy gale
A
Thy skin is ivory so white
Bm D Bm
The pleasant breezes wheresoe'er they blow
A
They bring me memories
Bm F# Bm
They bring me memories of my lovely Sue
A Bm
The boatswain gave the dreadful word
A Bm
The sails their swelling bosom spread
Bm D
No longer could she stay on board
A
She turned, she sighed, and hung her head
Bm D Bm
Her little boat unwilling rowed to land
A
"Adieu", she cried
Bm F# Bm
"Adieu", she cried and waved her lily hand
