A Capital Ship chords

[VERSE 1]
A [C]capital ship for an ocean trip
Was the "[G7]Walloping Window [C]Blind"
No [F]wind that [D7]blew dis[G]mayed her crew
Or [Am]troubled the [D7]captain's [G]mind
The [C]man at the wheel was made to feel
Con[F]tempt [C]for the [G7]wild[C]est [G7]blow
Tho' it [C]often appeared when the weather had cleared
That he'd [G7]been in his [C]bunk below

[CHORUS]
[C]So, blow ye winds, heigh-ho
A-[F]sailing we [G7]will [C]go
I'll stay no [G7]more [C]on [F]England's [C]shore
So [F]let [C]the [G7]mus[C]ic [G7]play
I'm [C]off for the morning train
To [F]cross the [G7]raging [C]main
I'm off to my [G7]love [C]with a [F]boxing [C]glove
Ten [F]thousand [G7]miles [C]away

[VERSE 2]
The [C]bos'un's mate was very sedate
Yet [G7]fond of amusement [C]too
He [F]played hop-[D7]scotch with the [G]starboard watch
Wh[Am]ile the captain [D7]tickled the [G]crew
The [C]gunner he was apparently mad
For [F]he sat [C]on [G7]the [C]after[G7]rail
And [C]fired salutes with the captain's boots
In the [G7]teeth of a [C]booming gale

[CHORUS]
[C]So, blow ye winds, heigh-ho
A-[F]sailing we [G7]will [C]go
I'll stay no [G7]more [C]on [F]England's [C]shore
So [F]let [C]the [G7]mus[C]ic [G7]play
I'm [C]off for the morning train
To [F]cross the [G7]raging [C]main
I'm off to my [G7]love [C]with a [F]boxing [C]glove
Ten [F]thousand [G7]miles [C]away

[VERSE 3]
The [C]captain sat on the commodore's hat
And [G7]dined in a royal [C]way
Off [F]pickles & [D7]figs & [G]little roast pigs
And [Am]gunnery [D7]bread each [G]day
The [C]cook was Dutch and behaved as such
For [F]the [C]diet he [G7]served [C]the [G7]crew
Was a [C]couple of tons of hot-cross buns
Served [G7]up with sugar and [C]glue

[CHORUS]
[C]So, blow ye winds, heigh-ho
A-[F]sailing we [G7]will [C]go
I'll stay no [G7]more [C]on [F]England's [C]shore
So [F]let [C]the [G7]mus[C]ic [G7]play
I'm [C]off for the morning train
To [F]cross the [G7]raging [C]main
I'm off to my [G7]love [C]with a [F]boxing [C]glove
Ten [F]thousand [G7]miles [C]away

[VERSE 4]
Then [C]we all fell ill as mariners will
On a [G7]diet that's rough and [C]crude
And we [F]shivered and [D7]shook as we [G]dipped the cook
In a [Am]tub of his [D7]gluesome [G]food
All [C]nautical pride we cast aside
And [F]we [C]ran the [G7]vess[C]el a[G7]shore
On the [C]Gulliby Isles where the poopoo smiles
And the [G7]rubbily ubdugs [C]roar

[CHORUS]
[C]So, blow ye winds, heigh-ho
A-[F]sailing we [G7]will [C]go
I'll stay no [G7]more [C]on [F]England's [C]shore
So [F]let [C]the [G7]mus[C]ic [G7]play
I'm [C]off for the morning train
To [F]cross the [G7]raging [C]main
I'm off to my [G7]love [C]with a [F]boxing [C]glove
Ten [F]thousand [G7]miles [C]away

[VERSE 5]
Com[C]posed of sand was that favored land
And [G7]trimmed with cinnamon [C]straws
And [F]pink and [D7]blue was the [G]pleasing hue
Of the [Am]tickle-toe [D7]teaser's [G]claws
We [C]sat on the edge of a sandy ledge
And [F]shot at [C]the [G7]whist[C]ling [G7]bee
While the [C]rugabug bats wore waterproof hats
As they [G7]dipped in the [C]shining sea

[CHORUS]
[C]So, blow ye winds, heigh-ho
A-[F]sailing we [G7]will [C]go
I'll stay no [G7]more [C]on [F]England's [C]shore
So [F]let [C]the [G7]mus[C]ic [G7]play
I'm [C]off for the morning train
To [F]cross the [G7]raging [C]main
I'm off to my [G7]love [C]with a [F]boxing [C]glove
Ten [F]thousand [G7]miles [C]away

[VERSE 6]
On [C]rugabug bark from dawn till dark
We [G7]dined till we all [C]had grown
Un[F]commonly s[D7]hrunk when a [G]Chinese junk
Came [Am]up from the [D7]Torrible [G]Zone
She was [C]stubby and square, but we didn't much care
So we [F]merr[C]ily [G7]put [C]to [G7]sea
And we [C]left all the crew of the junk to chew
On the [G7]bark of the [C]rubabug tree

[CHORUS]
[C]So, blow ye winds, heigh-ho
A-[F]sailing we [G7]will [C]go
I'll stay no [G7]more [C]on [F]England's [C]shore
So [F]let [C]the [G7]mus[C]ic [G7]play
I'm [C]off for the morning train
To [F]cross the [G7]raging [C]main
I'm off to my [G7]love [C]with a [F]boxing [C]glove
Ten [F]thousand [G7]miles [C]away
