Refrain:
5 -4 4 5 -4 4 (-6 6 -5 -6 6 -5)
Well it's all for me grog,
4 -4 5 -5 -4 4
me jolly jolly grog,
6 6 6 6 -5 55 -4
It's all for me beer and tobacco.
5 -5 6 6 -5 4
For I spent all me tin,
4-455-4-44
On the lassies drinking gin,
4 -4 5 6 6 5 -5 5 -4 4 -4 4
Far across the western ocean I must wander.
55 -4 4
Where are me boots,
4 -4 5 -5 -4 4
me noggin', noggin' boots,
4 6666-555-4
They're all gone for beer and tobacco.
4 -4 5 5 5 -4 4
For the heels they are worn out
4 -3 -4 -4 5 -4 4
and the toes are kicked about
4 -4 5 6 6 5 -5 5 -4 4 -4 4
And the soles are looking out for better weather.
455 -4 4

46666-555-4
It's all gone for beer and tobacco
5-5 666 -5 5
For i lent it to a whore
3-344-3-33
And the mattres is all wore
4 -4 5 6 6 5 -5 5 -4 4 -4 4
And the Springs are looking out for better wheater
5 -4 4 5 -4 4
Well im sick in the head
-4 -5 -5 -5 5 -4 4
And i havent been to bed
4 6666 -5 5 5 -4
Since i came ashore with my plunder
5-5 666 -5 5
I′ve seen centipedes and snakes
3-344-3-33
And i'm full of pains and aches
4 -4 5 6 6 5 -5 5 -4 4 -4 4
I think ill make a path way out yander
