[Verse 1]
C                G                        F
One morning as I rambled all down the seashore
                 C               G         C
The wind it did whistle and the waters did roar
                 G                     F
I heard a fair damsel make a pitiful sound
                 C            G      C
It sounded so lonesome in the waters around


[Chorus]
C            G                    F
I never will marry or be no man's wife
                  C             G          C
I expect to live single all the days of my life
                   G                    F
The shells in the ocean shall be my deathbed
                  C         G       C
The fish in deep water swim over my head


[Instrumental]
C  G  F
C  G  C


[Verse 2]
                      G                   F
She plunged her fair body in the ocean so deep
                    C           G         C
She closed her blue eyes in the waters to sleep
                     G                 F
My love's gone and left me, the one I adore
                    C         G           C
She's gone where I never will see her any more


[Chorus]
C            G                    F
I never will marry or be no man's wife
                  C             G          C
I expect to live single all the days of my life
                   G                    F
The shells in the ocean shall be my deathbed
                  C         G       C
The fish in deep water swim over my head
