G G D D
Next time out to sea
G G D D
Bring enough soil to bury me
C C Bb Bb
For I don't want my final jig
D D C C Bb Bb A A G G
In the belly of a squid
G G D D
Take my trousers take my shirt
G G D D
Just give me that sweet dirt
C C Bb Bb
For the water's cold and grim
D D C C Bb Bb A A G G
And I never did learn to swim
G G D D
No her love never set me free
G G D D
So I set off for the ocean
C C Bb Bb
Now in my dreams she comes to me
D D C C Bb Bb A A G G
Whispering of peace
G G D D
But I've known since the day
G G D D
That we sailed for Santiago
C C Bb Bb
Her dry embrace would kiss my face
D D C C Bb Bb A A G G
No never, No more

G G C C D D
The sea is a cruel mistress
G G C C D D
The sea is a cruel mistress

G G D D G G D D C C Bb Bb D D C C Bb Bb A A G G


G G D D
Many moons to the day
G G D D
That I threw her love away
C C Bb Bb
Now every whale spouts "go to hell"
D D C C Bb Bb A A G G
As the wind laughs in my face
G G D D
I've grown harder on the eyes
G G D D
And salty to the taste
C C Bb Bb
My pride has gone with the wake
D D C C Bb Bb A A G G
As I wait a cold wet grave
G G D D
I rose to the smell
G G D D
Of a wet desert hell
C C Bb Bb
And I thought to myself
D D C C Bb Bb A A G G
How'd I wind up in this jail
G G D D
Till a voice called to me
G G D D
From deep within the sea
C C Bb Bb
Dry your eyes my dear fisherman
D D C C Bb Bb A A G G
Your ass belongs to me

G G C C D D
The sea is a cruel mistress
G G C C D D
The sea is a cruel mistress
