I'm thinking about when I was a sailor
A chordA D chordD E chordE
Spent my time on the open seas
A chordA Em chordEm
When we'd stay off the coast of Jamaica
D chordD-D chordD-D chordD-A chordA
I'd secretly steal ashore
D chordD-D chordD-D chordD-A chordA
The natives were waiting for
D chordD-D chordD-D chordD-A chordA
The boy with the lazy soul
D chordD-D chordD-D chordD-A chordA E chordE
To sing with the sailor
(Chorus)
A chordA D chordD
Vahevala, homeless sailor
Vahevala, homeward sail away
Vahevala, homeless sailor
Vahevala, homeward sail away
Em chordEm A chordA
Every evening I'd be gone
Em chordEm A chordA E chordE
Back on board by break of dawn

I'm thinking about the nights in Jamaica
Pretty girls dancin' here and there
Stole a keg and now I'm drunk as a sailor
The captain he don't know
Where Billy he done go
But I'm singing with native girls
The songs of a sailor

(Chorus)

Every night in Jamaica I'd sing with the lady
And drink with the men till the morning appear
Healthy sunshine is fresh on my face
As the songs of the night puts the ring in my ear

(Chorus)
