Swansea Town

C                         G                C

Now, farewell to thee, sweet Nancy

       F             G           Am    G

Ten thousand times adieu

      C              F                       C     

I`m bound to cross the ocean, girl

         F                           G

Once more to part from you

 

 

Chorus:

          C          G             C

Once more to part from you FINE GIRL!

                  F       G     Am     G

You`re the girl I do adore

       C       F                       C

But still I live in hopes to see

       F                               G

Old Swansea Town once more

 

 

Oh, it`s now that I am out at sea

And you are far behind

Kind letters I will write to you

Of the secrets of my mind

 

CH: Of the secrets of my mind

FINE GIRL!

You`re the girl I do adore

But still I live in hopes to see

Old Swansea Town once more

 

Oh, it`s now the storm is coming

I can see it coming on

The night as dark as anything

We can not see the moon

 

CH: We can not see the moon

FINE GIRL!

Our rigging is all tore

But still I live in hopes to see

Old Swansea Town once more

 

Oh, it`s now the storm is over

And we are safe and ashore

We`ll drink some drinks of brandy to

To the girls that we adore

 

CH: To the girls that we adore

FINE GIRLS!!

We`ll make the tavern roar

And when there is no money left

We`ll go to sea for more

We`ll go to sea for more

FINE GIRL!

You`re the girl I do adore

But still I live in hopes to see

Old Swansea Town once more
