Вступление
[Verse 1]
B E B F#
When last I saw John Williams, a young man full of pride
B F# B
To have his lovely bride of just four days was standing by his side
B E B F#
He laughed and slpped me on the back, said “Boyo can’t you see
B E B F# B
I’ve seen the last of windswept bogs and bogs the last of me!
E B E B F#
And the peelers and the landlords and the risings of the moon
B E B F# B
And if ever I return again, ’twill be too bloody soon”
[Chorus]
F# E B
Rich man , poor man, beggar man, wife
F# E B
Sailed away into the night
E B
Where they’ll end up no-one knows
B F# B
Round and round the story goes
[Verse 2]
B E B F#
He said “I’ll go and take my chance in far off New York Town
B E B F# B
For they say there’s lots of work there and the good ones won't stay down
B E B F#
And with my lassie by my side we’ll build a better home
B E B F# B
And when the sea trip’s over lad we never more will roam”
E B E B F#
So we said farewell upon the quay, there was nothing left to do
B E B
But to pray for John and his lovely bride, that their dreams
F# B
might all come true
[Chorus]
F# E B
Rich man , poor man, beggar man, wife
F# E B
Sailed away into the night
E B
Where they’ll end up no-one knows
B F# B
Round and round the story goes
[Verse 3]
B E B F#
How I envied you, John Williams, and your lovely fair haired bride
B E B F# B
To be sailing on that mighty ship across the ocean wide
B E B F#
For she’s the finest liner, that was ever built by man
B E B F# B
And they say there’s naught can sink her, no not even God’s own hand
E B E B F#
Man’s pride can be his own downfall, that big ship sailed form home
B E B
And I thought I heard the banshee cry, and it chilled me to the bone
[Chorus]
F# E B
Rich man , poor man, beggar man, wife
F# E B
Sailed away into the night
E B
Where they’ll end up no-one knows
B F# B
Round and round the story goes
B F# B
Round and round the story goes
