[Verse]
Bm D F#m
Farewell and adieu to you, Spanish Ladies,
Bm D A
Farewell and adieu to you, ladies of Spain;
Bm A D F#m
For we've received orders for to sail for ol' England,
G F#m Bm F#m Bm
But we hope in a short time to see you again.
[Chorus]
Bm D F#m
We'll rant and we'll roar like true British sailors,
Bm D F#m
We'll rant and we'll roar all on the salt sea.
D A D F#m
Until we strike soundings in the channel of old England;
G A Bm Em F#m Bm
From Ushant to Scilly is thirty five leagues.
[Verse]
Bm D F#m
We hove our ship to with the wind from sou'west, boys
Bm D A
We hove our ship to, deep soundings to take;
Bm A D F#m
'Twas forty-five fathoms, with a white sandy bottom,
G F#m Bm F#m Bm
So we squared our main yard and up channel did make.
[Verse]
Bm D F#m
The first land we sighted was called the Dodman,
Bm D F#m
Next Rame Head off Plymouth, off Portsmouth the Wight;
D A D F#m
We sailed by Beachy, by Fairlight and Dover,
G A Bm F#m Bm
And then we bore up for the South Foreland light.
[Chorus]
Bm D F#m
We'll rant and we'll roar like true British sailors,
Bm D F#m
We'll rant and we'll roar all on the salt sea.
D A D F#m
Until we strike soundings in the channel of old England;
G A Bm Em F#m Bm
From Ushant to Scilly is thirty five leagues.
[Verse]
Bm D F#m
Then the signal was made for the grand fleet to anchor,
Bm D F#m
And all in the Downs that night for to lie;
Bm A D F#m
Let go your shank painter, let go your cat stopper!
G F#m Bm F#m Bm
Haul up your clewgarnets, let tacks and sheets fly!
[Verse]
Bm D F#m
Now let every man drink off his full bumper,
Bm D F#m
And let every man drink off his full glass;
Bm A D F#m
We'll drink and be jolly and drown melancholy,
G F#m Bm F#m Bm
And here's to the health of each true-hearted lass.
[Chorus]
Bm D F#m
We'll rant and we'll roar like true British sailors,
Bm D F#m
We'll rant and we'll roar all on the salt sea.
D A D F#m
Until we strike soundings in the channel of old England;
G A Bm Em F#m Bm
