[Verse 1]
G#m F# Fb B
Two in the morning, dry-dock town
G#m F# Fb B
The river rolls away in the night
G#m F# Fb B
Little gypsy moth she's all tied down
G#m F# Fb B
She quiver in the wind and the light
G#m F# Fb B
Yeah, and a sailing ship just held down in chains
G#m F# Fb B
From the lazy days of sail
G#m F# Fb B
She's just lying there in silent pain
G#m F# Fb B
He lean on the tourist rail
D#m G#m
D# mother and her baby and the college of war
Fb F#
In the concrete graves
G#m F# Fb B
You never want to fight against the river law
C#m Fb
Nobody rules the waves
[Chorus]
F# D#7 G#m
Yeah and on a night when the lazy wind is a-wailing
Fb F#
Around the Cutty Sark
G#m F# Fb B
Single handed sailor goes sailing
C#m Fb
Sailing away in the dark

[Verse 2]
G#m F# Fb B
He's upon the bridge on the self same night
G#m F# Fb B
The mariner of dry dock land
G#m F# Fb B
Two in the morning, but there is one green light
G#m F# Fb B
And a man on the barge of sand
D#m G#m
She's going to slip away below him
Fb F#
Away from the things he's done
G#m F# Fb B
But he just shouts "Hey man, what do you call this thing?"
C#m Fb
He could have said "Pride of London"
[Chorus]
F# D#7 G#m
On a night when the lazy wind is a-wailing
Fb F#
Around the Cutty Sark
G#m F# Fb B
Single handed sailor goes sailing
C#m Fb
Sailing away in the dark

(12)r10 : release bent note at 10th fret
