Intro
| A#m | A#m | G# | D# | x2
[Verse 1]
A#m G# Gb C#
Two in the morning, dry-dock town
A#m G# Gb C#
The river rolls away in the night
A#m G# Gb C#
Little gypsy moth she's all tied down
A#m G# Gb C#
She quiver in the wind and the light
A#m G# Gb C#
Yeah, and a sailing ship just held down in chains
A#m G# Gb C#
From the lazy days of sail
A#m G# Gb C#
She's just lying there in silent pain
A#m G# Gb C#
He lean on the tourist rail
Fm A#m
F mother and her baby and the college of war
Gb G#
In the concrete graves
A#m G# Gb C#
You never want to fight against the river law
D#m Gb
Nobody rules the waves
[Chorus]
G# F7 A#m
Yeah and on a night when the lazy wind is a-wailing
Gb G#
Around the Cutty Sark
A#m G# Gb C#
Single handed sailor goes sailing
D#m Gb
Sailing away in the dark
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
A#m G# Gb C#
He's upon the bridge on the self same night
A#m G# Gb C#
The mariner of dry dock land
A#m G# Gb C#
Two in the morning, but there is one green light
A#m G# Gb C#
And a man on the barge of sand
Fm A#m
She's going to slip away below him
Gb G#
Away from the things he's done
A#m G# Gb C#
But he just shouts "Hey man, what do you call this thing?"
D#m Gb
He could have said "Pride of London"
[Chorus]
G# F7 A#m
On a night when the lazy wind is a-wailing
Gb G#
Around the Cutty Sark
A#m G# Gb C#
Single handed sailor goes sailing
D#m Gb
Sailing away in the dark
[Outro]

For the intro: I tried to play the long note as a slide note. I have to say
that it sounds much better.
Tab notation follows:
10/12 : slide from 10th to 12th fret
10b(12) : bending (one tone) at 10th fret
(12)r10 : release bent note at 10th fret
10vv : vibrato
10h12 : hammer on
12p10 : pull off
