[D][Bm][G][A][D][Em][Asus4][A][D]
[Bm][G][A][D][Asus4][A]
Ah, [D]when

[Verse 1]
Jack [Bm]comes ashore
He's got [G]money [A]galore
And [D]he's seldom cut [Em]short of [A]a job
He can [D]dress down [Bm]as well
As [G]any can [A]tell
With a [D]good silver [A]watch in his [D]fob

[Verse 2]
Poor [D]Jack in his life
Was ne'er [G]plagued with [A]a wife
Though [D]sometimes with
[Em]lasses [G]he [A]links
He's [D]a sea[A]far[Bm] ing
[G]sailmaking gamboling [A]capering
[D]Grog drinking [A]hero, Jack [D]Hinks[Bm][G]
[A]Oh, [D]Jack [Em]Hinks[G][A]

[Verse 3]
When in[D]clined for to [Bm]spend
He walk[G]s in with [A]a friend
And with [D]pleasure [G]he sits
himsel[A]f down
[D]He tips off his [Bm]glass
And he [G]winks at the [A]lass
And he [D]smiles if she [A]happens [D]to frown

[Verse 4]
And like [D]a rattlin' true blue
When the [G]reckoning comes [A]due
On [D]the table the [Em]money he [A]clinks
He's [D]a seafar[A]ing[Bm]
[G]sailmaking gamboling [A]capering

[A]Bound

[Verse 5]
[D]home the other [Bm]fall
We fell [G]into a [A]squall
Near [D]the northernmost [Em]head
of [A]Cape Freels
[D]We were washed [Bm]away
Without [G]further [A]delay
At the [D]thought how my [A]spirit it [D]chills

[Verse 6]
We were [D]bashed on the rocks
Like a [G]hard hunted [A]fox
(Then) of [D]death and de
[Em]struction he [A]thinks
He's [D]a seafar[A]ing[Bm]
[G]sailmaking gamboling [A]capering
[D]Grog drinking [A]hero, Jack [D]Hinks[G]
[A]Oh, [D]Jack [Asus4]Hinks[A]

[Verse 7]
[D]Jack without [Bm]fail
Was out [G]in that same [A]gale
Having [D]drove [Em]across [A]Bonavist Bay
[D]Oh Neptune did [Bm]rail
As he [G]handled all [A]sail
And he [D]had his two [A]spars cut [D]away

[Verse 8]
Oh, but [D]Providence [Bm]kind
Who [G]so eases the [A]wind
And on sailor[D]s so c[Em]onstantly t[A]hinks
He saved that [D]seafar[Bm]ing[A]
[G]sailmaking gam[A]boling capering
[D]Seafaring [G]sailmaking gamboling
[A]capering
[D]Seafar[Bm] ing sai[G]lmaking gam
[A]boling capering
[D]Grog drinking [A]hero,
