BELLOWHEAD VERSION
FROM THE ALBUM HEDONISM

CAPO 3
Em
In the port of Amsterdam
Bm
There's a sailor who sings
C
Of the dreams that he brings
B
From a wide open sea
Em
And in the port of Amsterdam
Bm
There's a sailor who sleeps
C B7
While the river bank weeps
Em
To the old willow tree
G
And in the port of Amsterdam
D7 B7
There's a sailor who dies
Em
Full of beers full of cries
B7
In a drunken down fight
C
And in the port of Amsterdam
Bm
There's a sailor who is born
Am7 B7
On the hot muggy morn
Em
By the dawns early light
Em
In the port of Amsterdam
Bm
Where the sailors all meet
C
There's a sailor who eats
B
Only fish heads and tails
Em
He'll show you his teeth
Bm
That have rotted too soon
C B7
That can drink down the moon
Em
That can haul up the sails
G
And he turns to the cook
D7 B7
With his arms open wide
Em
Oh bring me more fish
B7
Set it down by my side
C
And he wants so to belch
Bm
But he's too full to try
Am7 B7
So he gets up and he laughs
Em
And he zips up his flies
Em
In the port of Amsterdam
Bm
You can see sailors dance
C
Paunches bursting their pants
B
Grinding women to paunch
Em
They've forgotten the tune
Bm
That their whiskey voice croaks
C B7
Splitting the night
Em
With the roar of their jokes
G
And they turn and they dance
D7 B7
And they laugh and they lust
Em
Till the rancid sound
B7
Of the accordion bursts
C
Then it’s in to the night
Bm
With their pride in their pants
Am7 B7
And the slut that they tow
Em
Underneath the street lamps
Em
In the port of Amsterdam
Bm
There's a sailor who drinks
C
And he drinks and he drinks
B
And he drinks once again
Em
Oh he drinks to the health
Bm
Of the whores of Amsterdam
C B7
Who have promised their bodies
Em
To a thousand other men
G
They have bargained their bodies
D7 B7
Their virtues all gone
Em
For the few dirty coins
B7
When he just can't go on
C
He puts his nose in the air
Bm
And he wipes it up above
Am7 B7
And he pisses like I cry
Em
For an unfaithful love
Em
In the port of Amsterdam
Bm Am B7 Em
In the port of Amsterdam
Em Bm Am B7 Em
In the port of Amsterdam
end on Em
