Intro
G
[Verse]
G
It was early, early all in the spring
C G
When my love Willie went to serve the king
F G
The night being dark and the wind blew high
G
Which parted me from my sailor boy
[Chorus]
G
Oh father, father, build me a boat
C G
For on the ocean I mean to float
F G
To watch the big ships as they pass by
G
For I might inquire of my sailor boy
[Verse]
G
She had not sailed there for a week or two
C G
When she spied the captain and all his crew
F G
Oh Captain, Captain, come tell me true
G
Does my love Willie sail on board with you
[Bridge]
G C F G
[Verse]
G
Oh fair maid, fair maid, he is not here
C G
He's lost or drowned, that I am afraid
F G
On yon green island as we passed by
G
T'was there we lost our fine sailor boy
G
She wrung her hands and she tore her hair
C G
Just like a lady in deep despair
F G
She called for paper, both pen and ink
G
And every line she did drop a tear
And every word she calls Willie near
[Chorus]
G
Oh father, father, dig me a grave
C G
Go dig it long and go dig it wide
F G
Place marble stone at my head and feet
G
That the world may know that I died in grief
[Outro]
