                                Sloop John B

(Capo 1st fret)
         G
      We come on the sloop John B - my grandfather and me
                                D
      Around Nassau town we did roam
                   G                 C    Am
      Drinking all night, got into a fight
              G               D  D7         G
      Well, I feel so broke up I want to go home

      So hoist up the John B's sail - see how the mainsail sets
      Call for the Captain ashore - let me go home
      Let me go home - I wanna go home, yeah yeah
      Well, I feel so broke up I wanna go home

      The first mate he got drunk and broke in the Cap'n's trunk
      The constable had to come and take him away
      Sheriff John Stone, why don't you leave me alone, yeah yeah
      Well, I feel so broke up I want to go home

      So hoist up the John B's sail - see how the mainsail sets
      Call for the Captain ashore - I wanna go home
      Why don't you let me go home - hoist up the John B
      I feel so broke up I wanna go home

      The poor cook he caught the fits and threw away all my grits
      And then he took and he ate up all of my corn
      Let me go home - why don't they let me go home?
      This is the worst trip I've ever been on

      So hoist up the John B's sail - see how the mainsail sets
      Call for the Captain ashore - let me go home
      I wanna go home - why don't you let me go home...

   The G is constantly adding a 4th (4 per line of verse) making a kind
   of caliope sound.
