Farewell Nancy

    Dm              Dm              Dm         Am
Farewell, my lovely Nancy, for it's now I must leave you
     Dm            Dm       Dm           Am
All along the salt sea I am bound for to go
    Dm          Dm         Dm         Am
But let my long absence be no trouble to you
    Dm        Dm          Dm         Am  Dm
For I shall return in the spring, as you know

[Verse 2]
          Dm            Dm             Dm           Am
Like some pretty little sea boy I will dress and go with you
       Dm         Dm            Dm         Am
In the deepest of danger I will stand your friend
       Dm          Dm               Dm          Am
In the cold stormy weather when the winds are a-blowin'
   Dm            Dm         Dm       Am  Dm
My dear, I'll be willing to wait for you then

[Verse 3]
          Dm            Dm                Dm         Am
Well your pretty little hands, they can't handle our tackle
         Dm            Dm          Dm             Am
And your dainty little feet on our top mast can't go
        Dm          Dm                 Dm           Am
And the cold stormy weather, love, you can't well endure
        Dm        Dm             Dm          Am Dm
I would have you ashore when the winds, they do blow

[Verse 4]
       Dm              Dm               Dm         Am
So farewell, my lovely Nancy since it's now I must leave you
     Dm            Dm       Dm           Am
All along the salt sea I am bound for to go
       Dm          Dm           Dm        Am
But as you must be safe, oh, be loyal and constant
    Dm        Dm          Dm        Am  Dm
For I shall return in the spring as you know
