Sloop John B
Recorded by The Beach Boys

We c-[C]ome on the Sloop John B, my grandfather and me.
Around Nassau town we did r-[G7]oam,
Drinking all n-[C]ight, Got into a f-[F]ight,
Well I f-[C]eel so break up, [G7] I wanta go h-[C]ome.

So h-[C]oist up the John B sail, see how the mains'l sets,
Call for the captain ashore, let me go h-[G7]ome.
Let me go h-[C]ome, I wanta go h-[F]ome,
Well I f-[C]eel so broke up, [G7] I wanta go h-[C]ome.

First Mate, he got drunk, broke up the people's trunk,
Constable had to come and take him away.
Sheriff John Stone, why don't you leave me alone?
Well I feel so broke up, I wanta go home.

So h-[C]oist up the John B sail, see how the mains'l sets,
Call for the captain ashore, let me go h-[G7]ome.
Let me go h-[C]ome, I wanta go h-[F]ome,
Well I f-[C]eel so broke up, [G7] I wanta go h-[C]ome.

The poor cook he caught the fits, threw away all my grits,
Then he took and ate up all of my corn.
Let me go home, I wanta go home,
This is the worst trip I've ever been on.

So h-[C]oist up the John B sail, see how the mains'l sets,
Call for the captain ashore, let me go h-[G7]ome.
Let me go h-[C]ome, I wanta go h-[F]ome,
Well I f-[C]eel so broke up, [G7] I wanta go h-[C]ome.
