[Verse]
D Am C D G
Once I was a waitin' man that lived at home at ease
G C G D G
Now I am a mariner that ploughs the angry seas
D Am C D G
Oh, I always loved seafarin' life, I bid my love adieu
G C G D G
I shipped as steward and cook, me boys, on board the Kangaroo
[Chorus]
D Am C D G
Oh I never thought she would prove false or either prove untrue
G C G D G
As we sailed away through Milford Bay onboard the Kangaroo
[Verse]
D Am C D G
"Think of me, oh think of me," she mournfully did say
G C G D G
"When you are in a foreign land and I am far away
D Am C D G
Take this lucky thruppenny bit, it'll make you bear in mind
G C G D G
That lovin' trustin' faithful heart you left in tears behind."
D Am C D G
"Cheer Up, cheer up, my own true love. Don't weep so bitterly,"
G C G D G
She sobbed, she sighed, she choked, she cried and could not say goodbye
D Am C D G
"I won't be gone for very long, 'tis but a month or two
G C G D G
When I will return again of course I´ll visit you."
[Chorus]
D Am C D G
Oh I never thought she would prove false or either prove untrue
G C G D G
As we sailed away through Milford Bay onboard the Kangaroo
[Verse]
D Am C D G
Our ship it was homeward bound from many's the foreign shore
G C G D G
And many´s the foreign present unto me love I bore
D Am C D G
I brought tortoises from Tenerife and toys from Timbuktu
G C G D G
A China rat, a Bengal cat and a Bombay cockatoo
D Am C D G
Paid off I sought her dwellin' on a street above the town
G C G D G
Where an ancient dame upon the line was hangin' out her gown
D Am C D G
"Where is me love? " "She´s vanished, sir, about six months ago
G C G D G
With a smart young man that drives the van for Chaplin, Son and Co.
[Chorus]
D Am C D G
Oh I never thought she would prove false or either prove untrue
G C G D G
As we sailed away through Milford Bay onboard the Kangaroo

[Verse]
D Am C D G
Here's a health to dreams of married life, to soap, to suds and blue
G C G D G
Heart's true love and patent starch and washin' soda too
D Am C D G
I'll go unto some foreign shore, no longer can I stay
G C G D G
And with some China hottentot I'll throw meself away
D Am C D G
Oh, Me love she is no foolish girl, her age it is two score
G C G D G
Me love she is no spinster, she's been married twice before
D Am C D G
I cannot say it was her wealth that stole me heart away;
G C G D G
She's a bailer in a laundry for one and nine a day
[Chorus]
D Am C D G
Oh I never thought she would prove false or either prove untrue
G C G D G
As we sailed away through Milford Bay onboard the Kangaroo
