[Intro]
C G Am
F G C
C G Am
F G C F
F G C
[Verse 1]
            C
Well, there is a lofty ship
     G              Am
That sails upon the sea
    F
The name of the ship
     G      C
'The Golden Vanity'
She feared she'd be taken by
  G       Am
A Spanish Galilee
       F               G        C       F
As she sailed upon the lowland, lowland low
                G       C
Sailed upon the lowland sea
[Interlude]
C G Am F G C
[Verse 2]
      C
Well, up stepped the cabin boy
    G             Am
The age of 12 and 3
F
Said to the Captain,
      G                C
"What will you give to me,
If I swim alongside
    G       Am
The Spanish Galilee,
    F               G        C       F
And sink her in the lowland, lowland low
                G       C
Sink her in the lowland sea?"
[Interlude]
C G Am F G C
[Verse 3]
       C
"Well, I will give you silver
    G               Am
And I will give you gold
        F
And the hand of me daughter
   G               C
If you would be so bold,
As to swim alongside
    G       Am
The Spanish Galilee,
    F               G        C       F
And sink her in the lowland, lowland low
                G       C
Sink her in the lowland sea."
[Interlude]
C G Am F G C
[Verse 4]
       C
So the boy made ready
    G              Am
And overboard doth he
F
Swam alongside
    G       C
The Spanish Galilee
With his drilling tool
   G          Am
He bore holes three
    F               G        C       F
And sank her in the lowland, lowland low
                G       C
Sank her in the lowland sea
[Interlude]
C G Am F G C
[Verse 5]
         C
Then the boy turned 'round
    G             Am
And swam back did he
   F
He called to the Captain
   G                 C
To haul him from the sea
The Captain did not heed
        G               Am
For his daughter he did need,
       F               G        C       F
And he left him in the lowland, lowland low
                G       C
Left him in the lowland sea
[Interlude]
C G Am F G C
[Verse 6]
          C
          *
Well, the crew hauled him up
    G             Am
    *             *
But on the deck he died
     F
     *
They wrapped him in a blanket
       G          C
       *          *
And so very softly cried
C
*
Threw him overboard
   G              Am
   *              
To drift among the tide
       F                G        C       F
And he sank beneath the lowland, lowland low
                 G      C
                 *      *
Sank beneath the lowland sea
