Biografia:
Linda Thompson (born Linda Pettifer) started her singing career in the 1960s, doing advertising jingles for money and singing in folk clubs for enjoyment. She changed her name to Linda Peters, and was romantically linked to Martin Carthy before working with Richard Thompson, whom she married in 1972. As part of Richard & Linda Thompson she sang on a string of critically acclaimed albums until a bitter split in 1982. After battling voice problems over the years since, she resurfaced with a solo album in 1996, and has worked sporadically since.

Linda Thompson - Never Put To Sea Boys
CAPO: 1st Fret
## NOTE: ~ = Walk-Down from C to Am and C to G ##
[Intro]
Am
[Verse 1]
We once took a tall ship
G Am
And sailed out from the Thames
C ~ Am
With two or three young officers
G Am
And a whole new fleet of men
C ~ Am
We were looking for adventure
G Em
We were gone for years and years and years
Am
Never put to sea, me boys
C ~ Am
It'll bring you nothing but tears
[Verse 2]
We'd not been gone a few short days
G Am
A week, but barely two
C ~ Am
When a black storm and a howling gale
G Am
Affected bad the crew
C ~ Am
They pleaded with the captain
G Em
"Turn, turn the ship around"
Am
Never put to sea, me boys
C ~ Am
There's a chance that you might drown
[Bridge]
C ~ G
Oh, here's to the sailors
C Em
The young and the live
Am
Here's to the sailors
C Em Am
And their pretty, pretty wives
[Verse 3]
We met a Spanish galleon
G Am
The fight ensued severe
C ~ Am
Such fearsome bloody pirates
G Am
That some men died of fear
C ~ Am
A brave few were left standing
G Em
Would not desert, desert their guns
Am
And the blood from off our decks, me boys
C ~ Am
Like water it did run
[Verse 4]
We gained a painful victory
G Am
And then sat down to dine
C ~ Am
You drank to king and country
G Am
I drank to Caroline
C ~ Am
And god has had a hand in this
G Em
For death for, death has left me be
Am
Never, never, never again
C ~ Am
Will I put to sea
[Bridge]
C ~ G
I don't care for the army
C Em
Or the infantry
Am
Haul away, me brave boys
C Em Am
It's on to victory
[Instrumental]
Am G Am C ~ Am G Am C ~ Am G Am C ~ Am E
[Verse 5]
Am
We made it back to Blighty
G Am
But some of us had gone
C ~ Am
To Davy Jones's locker
G Am
Poseidon and beyond
C ~ Am
And now I am an old man
G E7
I wish, I wish that I could be
Am
Once more upon the docks, me boys
C ~ A
Prepared to put to sea
