INTRO: [Gb]

VERSE 1:
[Gb] We come on the Sloop John B, my grandfather and me
Around Nassau town we do [Db] roam
Drinking all [Gb] night, got into a [B] fight
Well I [Gb] feel so broke up, [Db] I wanna go [Gb] home

CHORUS:
[Gb] So hoist up the John B's sail, see how the mainsail sets
Call for the Captain ashore, let me go [Db] home
Let me go [Gb] home, I wanna go [B] home, yeah yeah
Well I [Gb] feel so broke up, [Db] I wanna go [Gb] home

VERSE 2:
[Gb] The first mate he got drunk, and broke in the Captain's trunk
The constable had to come and take him a-[Db]-way
Sheriff John [Gb] Stone, why don't you leave me a-[B]-lone, yeah yeah,
Well I [Gb] feel so broke up, [Db] I wanna go [Gb] home

REPEAT CHORUS:

VERSE 3:
[Gb] The poor cook he caught the fits, and threw away all my grits
And then he took and he ate up all of my [Db] corn
Let me go [Gb] home, why don't they let me go [B] home
[Gb] This is the worst trip, [Db] I've ever been [Gb] on

REPEAT CHORUS:
