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

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