[Intro]
C
[Verse 1]
C AmI cannot get to my love if I would die;
Dm C FThe water of Tyne runs between her and me
Am Dm FAnd here I must stand with a tear in my 'ee
C F CBoth sighing and sickly, my true love to see
[Verse 2]
C Am DmOh, where is the boatman, oh, my bonny hinny?
Dm C FOh, where is the boatman? bring him to me
Am Dm FTo ferry me over the Tyne to my honey
C D F CAnd I will remember the boatman and thee
[Bridge]
F CIt's starting to rain and I'm froze to the marrow
F FI see her as plainly as she can see me
F CIt's less than a mile between North Shields and Jarrow
F CAnd the ship of my heart's carriеd out to the sea
[Outro]
C AmOh, bring me a boatman, I'll give any money
Dm G FAnd you for your troubles rewarded shall be
Am Dm FTo ferry me over the Tyne to my honey
C F COr scull her across the rough river to me
