[Verse 1]
E
Well, the Shenandoah was a good ship, mates
     B
From Dublin town she came
        A                E
And the captain being an Irishman
    B              E
And Murphy was his name


      E
'Twas on the 17th of March
   B
We lay in Mobile Bay
        A                E
And the captain being an Irishman
    B             E
Did celebrate the day


E
The crew, all being union men
    B
Who came from Dublin town
        A                       E
And the flag they flew from the masthead
        B                E
Was the harp without the crown




[Chorus]

E       B
Hurrah, hurrah
        A               E
For the girls of Dublin town
E              B
Hurrah for the bonnie green flag
E            B           E
And the harp without the crown




[Verse 2]

E
Now we're finished loading
    B
And homeward we will sail
        A          E
May the lord above protect us
B                  E
From many a wintry gale
   E
We send aloft the canvas, boys
    B
And work without a frown
    A                    E
And from the mast of the Shenandoah
        B                E
Was the harp without the crown




[Chorus]

E       B
Hurrah, hurrah
        A               E
For the girls of Dublin town
E              B
Hurrah for the bonnie green flag
E            B           E
And the harp without the crown



[Verse 3]

E
Now we're in the Channel, boys
        B
There's lovely things to see
      A                   E
Those highland hills and lowland dales
B                    E
They look so good to me

   E
And now we're off the Bailey Light
    B
The ship is seen from town
    A                            E
The girls all shout, "Here's the Shenandoah
         B               E
And the harp without the crown."



[Chorus]

E       B
Hurrah, hurrah
        A               E
For the girls of Dublin town
E              B
Hurrah for the bonnie green flag
E            B           E
And the harp without the crown

[Verse 4]

E
And now that we are landed
    B
And safe on Dublin's shore
      A                   E
We'll say goodbye to the Shenandoah
B                E
And go to sea no more

E
We'll drink strong ale and porter
    B
And pass the jug around
    A                  E
And say goodbye to the Shenandoah
         B               E
And the harp without the crown."


[Chorus]

E       B
Hurrah, hurrah
        A               E
For the girls of Dublin town
E              B
Hurrah for the bonnie green flag
E            B           E
And the harp without the crown
