[Verse 1]
B E B F#
When last I saw John Williams, a young man full of pride
B F# B
To have his lovely bride of just four days was standing by his side
He laughed and slpped me on the back, said “Boyo can’t you see
I’ve seen the last of windswept bogs and bogs the last of me!
And the peelers and the landlords and the risings of the moon
And if ever I return again, ’twill be too bloody soon”
[Chorus]
F# E B
Rich man , poor man, beggar man, wife
F# E B
Sailed away into the night
Where they’ll end up no-one knows
B F# B
Round and round the story goes
[Verse 2]
B E B F#
He said “I’ll go and take my chance in far off New York Town
For they say there’s lots of work there and the good ones won't stay down
And with my lassie by my side we’ll build a better home
B E B F# B
And when the sea trip’s over lad we never more will roam”
So we said farewell upon the quay, there was nothing left to do
B E B
But to pray for John and his lovely bride, that their dreams
might all come true
[Chorus]
F# E B
Rich man , poor man, beggar man, wife
F# E B
Sailed away into the night
Where they’ll end up no-one knows
B F# B
Round and round the story goes
[Verse 3]
B E B F#
How I envied you, John Williams, and your lovely fair haired bride
To be sailing on that mighty ship across the ocean wide
B E B F#
For she’s the finest liner, that was ever built by man
B E B F# B
And they say there’s naught can sink her, no not even God’s own hand
Man’s pride can be his own downfall, that big ship sailed form home
And I thought I heard the banshee cry, and it chilled me to the bone
[Chorus]
F# E B
Rich man , poor man, beggar man, wife
F# E B
Sailed away into the night
Where they’ll end up no-one knows
B F# B
Round and round the story goes
B F# B
Round and round the story goes
