  F#m                           D 
I say to the day we'll drop down to die 
      F#m                        D 
With fifty-five falls and seventy skies 
  F#m                                D 
I say to the day wear this bag that I brang 
     F#m                          D 
With Mayflower May and a monocle dime 



                 F#m 
Oh, where she lies 
                D 
Gently close her eyes

              F#m   D  F#m   D 
Oh, down she lies 



    F#m                           D 
Oh, I had a friend that I remember well 
     F#m                              D 
With sad little hands and a sad sickle cell 
    F#m                            D 
Oh, I had a friend, the ship sailed away 
       F#m                          D 
'Twas fifty-five falls of golden to stay 



                 F#m 
Oh, where she lies 
                D 
Gently close her eyes

Oh, down she lies
