\begin{SBVerse}
Twas \Ch{G}{Friday} morn when \Ch{C}{we} set \Ch{G}{sail}
And \Ch{C}{we} were not \Ch{D7}{far} from the \Ch{G}{land}
When the captain, he spied a \Ch{C}{lovely} \Ch{G}{mermaid}
With a \Ch{C}comb and a \Ch{D7}{glass} in her \Ch{G}{hand}
\end{SBVerse*}
~\\
\begin{SBChorus}
O the ocean's waves will roll
And the stormy winds will \Ch{D7}{blow}
While \Ch{G}{we} poor sailors go \Ch{C}{skipping} to the \Ch{G}{top}
And the \Ch{C}{landlubbers} \Ch{D7}{lie} down \Ch{G}{below} (below, below)
And the \Ch{C}{landlubbers} \Ch{D7}{lie} down \Ch{G}{below}
\end{SBChorus}
~\\
And up spoke the captain of our gallant ship\\
And a well-spoken man was he\\
I have me a wife in Salem by the sea\\
And tonight she a widow will be\\
~\\
And up spoke the cookie of our gallant ship\\
And a red hot cookie was he\\
Saying I care much more for my pots and my pans\\
Than I do for the bottom of the sea\\
~\\
Then up spoke the cabinboy, of our gallant ship\\
And a nasty little lad was he.\\
I'm not quite sure I can spell "mermaid"\\
But I'm going to the bottom of the sea.\\
~\\
Then three times around went our gallant ship\\
And three times around went she\\
Three times around went our gallant ship\\
And she sank to the bottom of the sea\\
