My Johnny was a shoemaker, but now he's gone to sea  
     F         G      Am   G   C

His jacket was a deep sky blue and curly was his hair 
                                   C      G    Am 
His jacket was a deep sky blue, it was, I do declare 
       F        G        Am  G          C 
For to reef the topsails up against the mast 
       Am    F         G    C      G 
And to sail across the sea, stormy sea 
    Am                        F G Am  F G Am  F G Am 
And sail across the stormy sea______

Someday he'll be a captain bold with a brave and a gallant crew 
                                       C           G        Am 
Someday he'll be a captain bold with a sword and a spyglass too 
    F       G     Am      G         C 
And when he has a gallant captain's sword 
           Am       F     G   C     G 
He'll come home and marry me, marry me
