C                      C G   C
Oh the times was hard and the wages low
G                  C
Leave her, Johnny, leave her
        F                    C
And the grub was bad and the gales did blow
         C              G     C
And it's time for us to leave her


[Chorus]
G                  C
Leave her, Johnny, leave her
    F                  C
Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her
        F         C            F        C
For the voyage is done and the winds do blow
         C              G     C
And it's time for us to leave her


  C                   C   G   C
I thought I heard the Old Man say
G                  C
Leave her, Johnny, leave her
        F             C
You can go ashore and take your pay
         C              G     C
And it's time for us to leave her


[Chorus]
G                  C
Leave her, Johnny, leave her
    F                  C
Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her
        F         C            F        C
For the voyage is done and the winds do blow
         C              G     C
And it's time for us to leave her


       C                      C      G   C
Oh her stern was foul and the voyage was long
G                  C
Leave her, Johnny, leave her
    F                     C
The winds was bad and the gales was strong
         C              G     C
And it's time for us to leave her


[Chorus]
G                  C
Leave her, Johnny, leave her
    F                  C
Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her
        F         C            F        C
For the voyage is done and the winds do blow
         C              G     C
And it's time for us to leave her


          C                         C     G   C
And we'll leave her tight and we'll leave her trim
G                  C
Leave her, Johnny, leave her
    F                C
And heave the hungry packet in
         C              G     C
And it's time for us to leave her


[Chorus]
G                  C
Leave her, Johnny, leave her
    F                  C
Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her
        F         C            F        C
For the voyage is done and the winds do blow
         C              G     C
And it's time for us to leave her


    C                  C         G      C
Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her with a grin
G                  C
Leave her, Johnny, leave her
            F             C
For there's many a worser we've sailed in
         C              G     C
And it's time for us to leave her


[Chorus]
G                  C
Leave her, Johnny, leave her
    F                  C
Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her
        F         C            F        C
For the voyage is done and the winds do blow
         C              G     C
And it's time for us to leave her


    C                C   G   C
And now it's time to say goodbye
G                  C
Leave her, Johnny, leave her
        F                C
For the old pierhead's a-drawing nigh
         C              G     C
And it's time for us to leave her


[Chorus]
G                  C
Leave her, Johnny, leave her
    F                  C
Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her
        F         C            F        C
For the voyage is done and the winds do blow
         C              G     C
And it's time for us to leave her
