verse 1 
A                        D 
I am a young fellow who sails a salt sea 
E                        A 
 Byhearted wherever I roam 
A                         D 
 Until thine sweet Anne from the town of Tralee 
E                        A 
 And now I think only of home 
A                        D 
 When I am out on the ocean there far 
E                        A 
 I dream that I’m holding her tight 
A                        D 
 For her I would raid the moon and the stars 
E                       A 
 Just to lie in her arms through the night

D         E            A             A 
 Oh if I had the wings of an eagle 
A        D            E          E 
 I'd fly to my love on the shore 
A        D            E            E 
 And never again would I leave her 
B           E           A 
 For she is the girl I adore 
B           E          A 

verse 2 
A                        D 
 We married that spring and contented were they 
E                        A 
 As only true lovers can be 
A                        D 
 But as captain did call That he had to obey 
E                        A 
 And return one last time to the sea

D          E            A             A

 I'd fly to my love on the shore

verse 3 
A                         D 
 A storm it is raging The sails are all torn 
E                          A 
 Our ship it is far from the land 
A                         D 
 I grieve from my life Though I face death with scorn 
E                         A 
 But I grieve ten times more for sweet Anne

D           E          A             A 
 Oh if I had the wings of an eagle 
A           D         E             E 
 I'd fly to my love on the shore 
A           D         E             E 
 And never again would I leave her 
B             E                A 
 For she is the girl I adore
