Capo 3
[A]Oh I thought I heard the old man say
[E]Leave her, Johnny, [E]leave her.
It's a [D]hard old [A]pull to the next [F#m]payday
And it's [A]time for [E]us to [A]leave her.
Chorus:
[E]Leave her, Johnny,[A]leave her
Oh [D]leave her, Johnny,[A]leave her.
Oh the [D]voyage is [A]done and the winds don't [F#m]blow
And it's [A]time for [E]us to [A]leave her.
[A]Now the winds were foul and the work was hard
[E]Leave her, Johnny, [E]leave her.
From the [D]Liverpool [A]docks to the London [F#m]yard
And it's [A]time for [E]us to [A]leave her.
Chorus
[A]Now the skipper was bad but the mate was worse
[E]Leave her, Johnny, [E]leave her.
[D]He would cut you down with a [A]swipe and a [F#m]curse
And it's [A]time for [E]us to leave [A]her.
[A]Now it was rotten meat and moldy bread
[E]Leave her, Johnny, [E]leave her.
[D]You would eat it or you would [A]starve to [F#m]death.
Now it's [A]time for [E]us to [A]leave her.
strum the chord pretty much after every time you pluck the notes
to get the fuller sound.
