A5                A5    F#5     F#5      D5         E5         A5
We were drinking down to Ready's place when first we heard the blow
A5            A5      F#5     F#5     D5            B5
It seemed to come from Ripper Rock so boldly forth we go
D5                 A5                               F#5 - E5
And sure enough a rusty tub could just barely be seen
A5                                      F#5
As her stern was high up in the air we made out "Athens Queen"
D5               E5     A5
Oh the lovely Athens Queen


and so forth...
