[Verse 1]
D
Oh, I will set my ship in order
Bm A G
I will sail her on the sea
D
I'll go far over yonder border
Bm A/C# D
To see if my love minds on me
[Verse 2]
Bm A/C# D
And he sailed east and he sailed west
Bm A D G
He sailed far, far seeking land
D
Until he came to his true love's window
Bm A D G
And he knocked loud and would be in
[Verse 3]
D
"Oh, who is that at my bedroom window?
Bm A D G
Who knocks so loud and would be in?"
D
"'Tis I, 'tis I, your ain true lover
Bm A/C# D
And I am drenched untae my skin
[Verse 4]
G D
"So go and go and ask your faither
Bm A G
And see if he'll let you marry me
D
If he says no, come back and tell me
Bm A/C# D
And it's the last time I'll trouble thee"
[Verse 5]
G D
"My father's in his chamber writing
Bm A G
Setting down his merchandise
D
And in his hand he holds a letter
Bm A/C# D
And it speaks much in your dispraise
[Verse 6]
G D
"My mother's in her chamber sleeping
Bm A G
And words of love she will not hear
D
So you may go and court another
Bm A/C# D
And whisper softly in her ear"

Then she arose, put on her clothing

His ship was sailing on the main

She's flung herself intae the sea
