Lyrics with chords

C Oh, blow the man down, bullies, blow the man G7 down,

to me way-ay, blow the man C down.

Oh, blow the man down, bullies, blow him aG7 way,

oh, gimme some time to blow the man C down.

We went over the bar on the thirteenth of G7 May,

to me way-ay, blow the man C down.

The Galloper jumped, and the gale came aG7 way,

oh, gimme some time to blow the man C down.
