[Verse 1]
[G]It was twenty -five or thirty years
since Jack first saw [D]the light.
He came into this world of woe
one dark and stormy [G]night.
He was born on board his father's ship
as she was a -lying [D]too,
About twenty -five or thirty miles
southeast of Bacaloo.
[G]Jack was every inch a sai[D]lor,
five and twenty years a [G]whaler.
Jack was every inch a [D]sailor,
he was born upon the great blue [G]sea.
When Jack grew up to be a man,
he went to the Labrador.
[D]He fished in Indian Harbor
where his father fished be[G]fore.
On his returning in the fog,
he met the heavy [D]gale,
and Jack was swept into the sea
and swallowed by a [G]whale.
Jack was every inch a [D]sailor,
five and twenty years a [G]whaler.
Jack was every inch a [D]sailor,
he was born upon the bright blue [G]sea.
The whale went straight for Baffin's Bay
about 90 knots an [D]hour,
and every time he'd blow a spray
he'd send it in the [G]shower.
Oh now, says Jack,
and to himself I must see what he's about.
[D]He cut the whale all by the tail
and turned him inside [G]out.
Jack was every inch a [D]sailor,
five and twenty years a [G]whaler.
Jack was every inch a [D]sailor,
he was born upon the bright blue [G]sea.
