So early early in the spring
GA
I shipped on board to serve my king
A
I left my dearest dear behind
G    E    A
She oftimes swore her heart was mine

My love she takes me by the hand
If ever I marry youll be the man
A thousand vows so long and sweet
Say well be married when next we meet

And all the time I sail the seas.
I could not find one moments ease
In thinking of my dearest dears
But never a word from her could I hear

At last we sailed into Glasgow town
I strolled the streets both up and down
Inquiring for my dearest dear
And never word from her could I hear

I went straight way to her fathers home
And loudly for my love did call
My daughters married shes a rich mans wife
Shes a wed to another
Much better for life

If the girl is married that I adore
Im sure ill stay on land no more
Ill sail the sea till the day I die
Ill break the waves
Rolling mountains high
