[Verse 1]
C F
I left the city when just a lad,
C G
Times were hard and no work to be had,
C F
So I went to sea on the Flora Belle,
G C
Little did I know 'twas a ship from hell.
C F
The ship was old and leaking at the seams,
C G
A dirty old tub somewhat broad in the beam,
C F
Some sails were torn, some planks were rotten,
G C
She lay at the wharf a gently rockin.
[Chorus]
C F
I've sailed from Auckland to the Bluff
C G
A thousand miles and that's enough - HO!
C F
A thousand miles on the heaving sea
G C
Glory Halleluja that's enough for me
[Verse 2]
C F
We set sail on the evening tide
C G
It was early on a Saturday night
C F
All went well till the Tiri light
G C
And then by God I got a fright
C F
The ship was hit by a big beam sea
C G
Christ, I thought, it was all up for me;
C F
She rolled and she lollopped like a big tin drum
G C
Hell! I swore my time had come.
[Chorus]
C F
I've sailed from Auckland to the Bluff
C G
A thousand miles and that's enough - HO!
C F
A thousand miles on the heaving sea
G C
Glory Halleluja that's enough for me
[Verse 3]
C F
"Shorten sails" the skipper cried
C G
"Shorten the sails or you buggers will all die
C F
Get aloft, get aloft, and get up the mast
G C
Get aloft, get aloft, and get up there fast."
C F
Never in my life had I been so scared
C G
Never in my life had I wished I was dead
C F
But I climbed up the mast and I shortened sail
G C
Then I climbed down again and was sick o'er the rail.
[Chorus]
C F
I've sailed from Auckland to the Bluff
C G
A thousand miles and that's enough - HO!
C F
A thousand miles on the heaving sea
G C
Glory Halleluja that's enough for me
[Verse 4]
C F
Man the pumps the skipper roared
C G
Man the pumps or you'll sail the ocean floor
C F
So I pumped all night though my hands were raw
G C
And I pumped and I pumped 'till the coming of the dawn
C F
The captain was a young man fit and mean
C G
The food was rotten, and the quarters none too clean
C F
The journey south was always rough
G C
So I jumped the ship when we pulled into Bluff
D G
Now here in Bluff I'll settle down
D A
Never again will I leave this town
D G
Never again will I go to sea
A D
Never again shall it see me
[Chorus]
D G
I've sailed from Auckland to the Bluff
D A
A thousand miles and that's enough - HO!
D G
A thousand miles on the heaving sea
A D
Glory Halleluja that's enough for me
D G
I've sailed from Auckland to the Bluff
D A
A thousand miles and that's enough - HO!
D G
A thousand miles on the heaving sea
A D
Glory Halleluja that's enough for me
