[Verse 1]
[C]Now
'twas twenty five or thirty years
Since Jack first saw the [G]light
He came into this world of woe
One dark and stormy [C]night.
He was born on board
his father's ship
As she was lying [G]to
'Bout twenty five or thirty miles
Southeast [C]of Baccalieu.

[Verse 2]
Chorus: [C]Jack was
ev'ry inch [G]a sailor,
Five and twenty years a [C]whaler,
Jack was ev'ry inch a [G]sailor,
He was born upon the bright [C]blue sea.

[Verse 3]
[C]When Jack grew up to be a man,
He went to the Labrador,
[G]He fished in Indian Harbour,
Where his father fished be[C]fore.
On his returning in the fog,
He met a heavy [G]gale,
And Jack was swept into the sea
And swallowed by a [C]whale.

[Verse 4]
[C]The whale went [G]straight for
[C]Baffin's Bay,
About ninety [G]knots an hour.
And every time he'd blow a spray
He'd send it in a shower[C].
"O, now" says Jack unto himself,
"I must see what [G]he's about,"
He caught the whale by the tail
And turned him inside [C]out.
