[Verse 1]
Em D Bm
We’ve met, we’ve met, my old true love
D Em
We’ve met, we’ve met, said he
Em D Bm
I’ve just returned from the salt, salt sea
D Em
And it's all for the love of thee
Em
[Verse 2]
Em A Em
I could have married the King’s daughter fair
Em D A Em
She would have married me
Em D Bm
But I’ve forsaken her crown of gold
D Em
And it's all for the love of thee
D Em
[Verse 3]
Em D Bm
Come in, come in, my old true love
D Em
Come in, she said to him
Em D Bm
For it’s been three fourths of a long, long year
D Em
Since together we have been
[Verse 4]
Em A Em
No, I can’t come in, nor I can’t sit down
Em D A Em
For I have but a moment’s time
Em D Bm
And they say that you’re married to a house carpenter
D Em
And your heart will never be mine
D Em
[Verse 5]
Em D Bm
Will you come with me, my old true love?
D Em
Oh come with me, said he
Em D Bm
And I’ll take you to where the grass grows green
D Em
On the banks of Bittery
Em
[Verse 6]
Em A Bm
Then she picked up her sweet little babe
Em D A Em
And kisses she gave it three
Em D Bm
Sayin', stay at home my darlin’ little babe
D Em
And keep your papa company
Em D Em
[Verse 7]
Em D Bm
Then he jumped on a milk white steppe
D Em
And her on a dapple grey
Em D Bm
They rode until they came to the banks of a sea
D Em
Three hours before the break of day
[Verse 8]
Em A Bm
They had not been on the ship two weeks
Em D A Em
I’m sure it was not three
Em D Bm
Until his true love began to weep and to mourn
D Em
And she wept most bitterly
Em D Em
[Verse 9]
Em D Bm
Oh, is it for my silver you weep?
D Em
Is it for my store?
Em D Bm
Or is it for that house carpenter
D Em
Whose face you’ll never see no more?
[Verse 10]
Em A Em
It’s neither for you silver I weep
Em D A Em
And neither for your store
Em D Bm
But it’s all for the sake of my sweet little babe
D Em
Whose face I’ll never see no more
Em D Em
[Verse 11]
Em D Bm
Then a curse, a curse to the sailor she cried
D Em
B curse, a curse, she swore
Em D Bm
You’ve robbed me of my house carpenter
D Em
Whose face I’ll never see no more
[Verse 12]
Em A Bm
They had not been on the ship three weeks
Em D A Em
I’m sure it was not four
Em D Bm
Till they sprang a leak in the bottom of the ship
D Em
And it sunk for to rise no more
[Outro]
