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