D Bm
Well here we are, we're back again
D A
Safe upon the shore
D Bm G
In Belfast town we'd like to stay
D A D
And go to sea no more
G D A Bm
We'll go into a public house
G Em A
And drink till we're content
D G
For the lassies they will love us
Em G A D
Till our money is all spent
[Refrão]
G D
So pass the flowin' bowl
Em G
Boys there's whiskey in the jar
D G
And we'll drink to all the lassies
Em G A D
And the jolly roving tar
( A D G Em G A D )
[Verso 2]
D Bm
Oh Johnny did you miss me
D A
When the nights were long and cold
D Bm G
Or did you find another love
D A D
In your arms to hold
G D A Bm
Says he I thought of only you
G Em A
While on the sea afar
D G
So come up the stairs and cuddle
Em G A D
With your jolly roving tar
[Refrão]
G D
So pass the flowin' bowl
Em G
Boys there's whiskey in the jar
D G
And we'll drink to all the lassies

And the jolly roving tar

Well in each other's arms they rolled
D A
Till the break of day
D Bm G
When the sailor rose and said farewell
D A D
I must be on me way
G D A Bm
Ah don't you leave me Johnny lad
G Em A
I thought you'd marry my
D G
Says he I can't be married
Em G A D
For I'm married to the sea
[Refrão]

So pass the flowin' bowl

D Bm
Well come all you bonnie lasses
D A
And a warning take by me
D Bm G
And never trust an Irishman
D A D
An inch above your knee
G D A Bm
He'll tease you and he'll squeeze you
G Em A
And when he's had his fun
D G
He'll leave you in the morning
Em G A D
With a daughter or a son
[Refrão]
G D
So pass the flowin' bowl
Em G
Boys there's whiskey in the jar
D G
And we'll drink to all the lassies
Em G A D
And the jolly roving tar

So pass the flowin' bowl
Em G
Boys there's whiskey in the jar
D G
And we'll drink to all the lassies
Em G A D
And the jolly roving tar
