Verse 1
Am
There once was an old captain
Dm
G
who wished nothing more
C
Am
than to live again
E
his voyages and walk by the seashore
Am
A simple man and a good man,
Dm
C
but the bane of his life
Am
Was his ill -tempered,
E
bad -hearted bitch of a wife
Am
F
C
Oh, the jolly captain
F
was plagued by her bile
C
F
He smoked his long pipe
E
and he smiled upon her tenderly
Am
F
He didn't like her much,
C
but he loved her,
F
C
despite her rough tongue
F
E
The way -faced old nine -bagger'd been
Am
G
Am

F
E
His pretty darling once
Am
She fell down her staircase,
Dm
C
she fractured her neck
Am
She lay upon her linoleum
E
in a black apoplexy
Am
Her baleful eyes bulged
Dm
with unspeakable abuse
C
Am
It seems that her spleen
E
had been overproducing
F
C

So the jolly captain carried her to bed
C
F
Am

Close your poor eyes, he said,

sleep a little peaceably

and cool watercress
C
F

Violet and peppermint
Am
G
F
to soothe her heart's bitterness
E
Am
From her deathbed she said,
Dm
C
if you marry when I die
Am
I'll crawl from my coffin
E
to haunt you vexatiously
Am
With a howl and a scowl
Dm
C
and with a shudder and a shake
Am
She spat out her peppermint
E
Am
and went to vex her maker
F
C
Her unhappy captain,
F
so sad when she died
C
F
E
He closed her wild eyes
and he cried a bit on the Friday
Am
F
C
But he saw no good reason

for wasting away
C

So he married an apple -cheeked girl
Am
G

on the Saturday
E
Am
Alas, jolly captain,
Dm
C
you're married too soon
Am
She'll come to torment you
E
from underneath her tombstone
Am
She'll scratch and she'll claw
Dm
G
C
her way up from the grave
Am
Hacking her way back again
E
Am
with furious fingernails
F
C
No, said the jolly captain,
F
she'll stay in her place
C
F
She can scratch, she can scrape
E
Am
till she's black in the face
F
No, she won't come to
C
F
haunt me and taunt me
C
F
I know, cause I buried her
E
face down wet
She's a long way to go
Am
F
No, she won't come to
C
F
haunt me and taunt me
C
F
I know, cause I buried her
E
face down wet
Am
She's a long way to go you
