Intro D

D Grandma loved a sailor, who sailed the frozen sea
Grandpa was a whaler, and he took me on his knee
He said, D son, I’m going crazy, from livin’ on the land
Got to find my shipmates, and walk on foreign sands

Inter C A D – C A G F#m Em A7

D This old man was graceful, with silver in his smile
He smoked a briar pipe and, he walked four country miles
Singing D songs of shady sisters, and old time liberty
Songs of love and songs of death, and songs to set men free

Inter C A D – C A G F#m – Em Dm Em Dm
