    Am (x02210@1)                                                               
And they did cast lots which of them should go,
       Dm (xx0231@1)       C (x32010@1)name="chord_022100@1">E

Am (x02210@1)                       E (022100@1)      AmThe (x02210@1)lot it fell first upon Henry Martin,
                Dm (xx0231@1)    C (x32010@1)E (022100@1)The youngest of all the three;
     AmThat (x02210@1)he should turn robber all on the salt sea,

                Dm (xx0231@1)           C (x32010@1)E (022100@1)And a part of a short winter's day,
     AmWhen (x02210@1)he espied a stout lofty ship,
      Dm (xx0231@1)        C (x32010@1)Elofty (022100@1)ship, lofty ship,
Am (x02210@1)  C (x32010@1)          G (320003@1)             AmCome (x02210@1)abibbing down on him straight way.

Am (x02210@1)                E (022100@1)   AmHullo! (x02210@1)Hullo! cried Henry Martin,
               Dm (xx0231@1)    C (x32010@1)E (022100@1)What makes you sail so nigh?
      AmI'm (x02210@1)a rich merchant ship bound for fair London Town,

Am (x02210@1)      C (x32010@1)           G (320003@1)         AmWould (x02210@1)you please for to let me pass by?

Am (x02210@1)                E (022100@1)       AmOh (x02210@1)no! Oh no! cried Henry Martin,
              Dm (xx0231@1)        C (x32010@1)E (022100@1)This thing it never could be,
    AmFor (x02210@1)I have turned robber all on the salt sea
     Dm (xx0231@1)          C (x32010@1)ESalt (022100@1)sea, the salt sea.
Am (x02210@1)       C (x32010@1)         G (320003@1)          AmFor (x02210@1)to maintain my two brothers and me.

Am (x02210@1)                       E (022100@1)           AmCome (x02210@1)lower your tops'l and brail up your mizz'n
                    Dm (xx0231@1)     C (x32010@1)E (022100@1)And bring your ship under my lee,
   AmOr (x02210@1)I will give to you a full cannon ball,
       Dm (xx0231@1)         C (x32010@1)Ecannon (022100@1)ball, cannon ball,
Am (x02210@1)              C (x32010@1)          G (320003@1)         AmAnd (x02210@1)all your dear bodies drown in the salt sea.

Am (x02210@1)                      E (022100@1)   AmOh (x02210@1)no! we won't lower our lofty topsail
                   Dm (xx0231@1)       C (x32010@1)E (022100@1)Nor bring our ship under your lee,
    AmAnd (x02210@1)you shan't take from us our rich merchant goods,
         Dm (xx0231@1)            C (x32010@1)Emerchant (022100@1)goods, merchant goods
Am (x02210@1)C (x32010@1)            G (320003@1)         AmNor (x02210@1)point our bold guns to the sea.

Am (x02210@1)                             E (022100@1)        AmThen (x02210@1)broadside and broadside and at it they went
              Dm (xx0231@1)     C (x32010@1)E (022100@1)For fully two hours or three,
     AmTill (x02210@1)Henry Martin gave to them the deathshot,
