This version with the capo makes it easier to pick the chords and seems to go along with the "Turn" 
soundtrack version. I've also corrected a little bit of the lyrics.  All chords are relative to the capo.
FarAmewell and adieu to yCou, Spanish lEmadies,
FarAmewell and adieu to yCou ladies of GSpain;
For Amwe've received Gorders for to sCail for ol' EmEngland,
But we hFope in a shEmort time to sAmee Emyou agAmain.
We'll rAmant and we'll roar like tCrue British sEmailors,
We'll rAmant and we'll roar all Con the salt Emsea.
UCntil we take sGoundings in the ChCannel of old EEmngland;
From FUshant to SGcilly is AmthirDmty-fEmive Amleagues.
We Amhove our ship to with the wiCnd from the sou' wEmest boys,
We Amhove our ship to, Cdeep soundings to Gtake;
'Twas Amforty-five Gfathoms, with a Cwhite sandy Embottom,
So we Fsquared off our Emmain yard and up Amchannel Emdid Ammake.
We'll rAmant and we'll roar like tCrue British Emsailors,
We'll rAmant and we'll roar all Con the salt Emsea.
UCntil we take sGoundings in the ChCannel of old EEmngland;
From FUshant to SGcilly is AmthirDmty-fEmive Amleagues.
Now Amlet every man drink Coff his full Embumper,
And Amlet every man drink Coff hiss full gGlass;
We'll Amdrink and be Gjolly and Cdrown melancEmholy,
And Fhere's to the Emhealth of each Amtrue-hearEmted Amlass
We'll rAmant and we'll roar like tCrue British Emsailors,
We'll rAmant and we'll roar all Con the salt Emsea.
UnCtil we take Gsoundings in the CChannel of old EmEngland;
From FUshant to SGcilly is AmthirDmty-fEmive Amleagues.
The Amfirst land we sighted Cwas called the EmDodman,
Next AmRame Head off Plymouth, CStart, Portland then GWight;
We Amsailed on by GBeachy, by CFairley and EmDover,
And Fthen we bore Emup for the AmSouth ForeEmland Amlight.
We'll rAmant and we'll roar like tCrue British Emsailors,
We'll rAmant and we'll roar all Con the salt Emsea.
UCntil we take sGoundings in the ChCannel of old EEmngland;
From FUshant to SGcilly is AmthirDmty-fEmive Amleagues.
Then Amthe signal was made for the CGrand Fleet to Emanchor,
And Amall in the Downs that Cnight for to Glie;
Let Amgo your shank Gpainter, let Cgo your cat Emstopper!
Haul Fup your clewgEmarnets, let Amtacks Emand sheets Amfly!
We'll rAmant and we'll roar like tCrue British Emsailors,
We'll rAmant and we'll roar all Con the salt Emsea.
UCntil we take sGoundings in the ChCannel of old EEmngland;
From FUshant to SGcilly is AmthirDmty-fEmive Amleagues.
Now Amlet every man drink Coff his full Embumper,
And Amlet every man drink Coff his full Gglass;
We'll Amdrink and be Gjolly and Cdrown melancEmholy,
And Fhere's to the Emhealth of each Amtrue-hearEmted Amlass
We'll rAmant and we'll roar like tCrue British Emsailors,
We'll rAmant and we'll roar all Con the salt Emsea.
UCntil we take sGoundings in the ChCannel of old EEmngland;
From FUshant to SGcilly is AmthirDmty-fEmive Amleagues.
