Capo 3

[Verse 1]
           Am                           Am
There once was a ship that put to sea
         Dm                                 Am
The name of the ship was the Billy of Tea
       Am                         Am
The winds blew up, her bow dipped down
         E                            Am
O b-low, my bully boys, blow

[Chorus]
F                     C
Soon may the Wellerman come
       Dm                       Am
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
F                            C
One day, when the tonguin’ is done,
          E                          Am
We’ll take our leave and go

[Verse 2]
Am                            Am
She'd not been two weeks from shore
          Dm                  Am
When down on her a right whale bore
           Am                  Am
The captain called all hands and swore
        E                           Am
He'd take that whale in tow, huh!

[Chorus]
F                     C
Soon may the Wellerman come
      Dm                         Am
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
F                                C
One day, when the tonguin’ is done,
         E                           Am
We’ll take our leave and go

[Interlude]
F               C
Da da da-da dat da
      Dm                     Am
Da-da dat da da-da da dat da
F               C
Da da da-da dat da
       E                   Am
Da-da dat da dat da

[Verse 3]
Am                            Am
Before the boat had hit the water
       Dm                       Am
The wha-le's tail came up and caught her
        Am                         Am
All hands to the side, harpooned and fought her
E                                 Am
When she dived down low

[Chorus]
F                         C
Soon may the Wellerman come
     Dm                         Am
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
F                              C
One day, when the tonguin’ is done,
          E                          Am
We’ll take our leave and go

[Verse 4]
      Am                    Am
No line was cut, no whale was freed
          Dm                       Am
The captain's mind was not of greed
        Am                         Am
And he belonged to the whaleman's creed
        E                        Am
She took that ship in tow

[Chorus]
F                     C
Soon may the Wellerman come
       Dm                        Am
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
F                                C
One day, when the tonguin’ is done,
         E                           Am
We’ll take our leave and go

[Interlude]
F               C
Da da da-da dat da
      Dm                 Am
Da-da dat da da-da da dat da
F               C
Da da da-da dat da
       E                   Am
Da-da dat da dat da

[Verse 5]
        Am               Am
For forty days, or even more
       Dm                            Am
The line went slack, then tight once more
        Am                                   Am
All boats were lost (there were only four)
         E                         Am
But still that whale did go

[Chorus]
F                      C
Soon may the Wellerman come
        Dm                      Am
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
F                            C
One day, when the tonguin’ is done,
          E                           Am
We’ll take our leave and go

[Verse 6]
     Am                             Am
As far as I've heard, the fight's still on
        Dm                           Am
The line's not cut and the whale's not gone
        Am                              Am
The Wellerman makes his regular call
       Dm                              Am
To encourage the Captain, crew, and all

[Chorus]
F                      C
Soon may the Wellerman come
      Dm                        Am
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
F                                C
One day, when the tonguin’ is done,
          E                           Am
We’ll take our leave and go

[Outro]
F                    C
Soon may the Wellerman come
       Dm                        Am
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
F                             C
One day, when the tonguin’ is done,
         E                            Am
We’ll take our leave and go
