[Verse 1]
Am G F C
Two in the morning, dry-dock town
Am G F C
The river rolls away in the night
Am G F C
Little gypsy moth she's all tied down
Am G F C
She quiver in the wind and the light
Am G F C
Yeah, and a sailing ship just held down in chains
Am G F C
From the lazy days of sail
Am G F C
She's just lying there in silent pain
Am G F C
He lean on the tourist rail
Em Am
E mother and her baby and the college of war
F G
In the concrete graves
Am G F C
You never want to fight against the river law
Dm F
Nobody rules the waves
[Chorus]
G E7 Am
Yeah and on a night when the lazy wind is a-wailing
F G
Around the Cutty Sark
Am G F C
Single handed sailor goes sailing
Dm F
Sailing away in the dark
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Am G F C
He's upon the bridge on the self same night
Am G F C
The mariner of dry dock land
Am G F C
Two in the morning, but there is one green light
Am G F C
And a man on the barge of sand
Em Am
She's going to slip away below him
F G
Away from the things he's done
Am G F C
But he just shouts "Hey man, what do you call this thing?"
Dm F
He could have said "Pride of London"
[Chorus]
G E7 Am
On a night when the lazy wind is a-wailing
F G
Around the Cutty Sark
Am G F C
Single handed sailor goes sailing
Dm F
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
