SLOOP JOHN B BEACH BOYS
G
1. We come out in the Sloop John B, my grandfather and me
G D
Around Nassau town we did roam,
G C Am7
Drinking all night, got into a fight
G D7 G
Well I feel so broke up, I wanna go home
G
Ref.: So hoist up the John B sail,
G
See how the main sail set
G D
Call for the Captain ashore, let me go home
G C Am7
Let me go home, I wanna go home - oh yeah
G D7 G
Well, I feel so broke up, I wanna go home
G
The first mate he got drunk,he broke into the Captains trunk
G D
A constable had to come and take him away
G C Am7
Sheriff John Stone, why don't you leave me alone
G D7 G
Well, I feel so broke up, I wanna go home
G
Ref.: So hoist up the John B sail,
G
See how the main sail set
G D
Call for the Captain ashore, let me go home
G C Am7
Let me go home, I wanna go home - oh yeah
G D7 G
Well, I feel so broke up, I wanna go home
G
3. The poor cook he got the fits, he threw away all my grits
G D
Then he took and ate up all of my corn
G C Am7
Let me go home, why don't you let me go home
G D7 G
This is the worst trip, I've ever been on
G
Ref.: So hoist up the John B sail,
G
See how the main sail set
G D
Call for the Captain ashore, let me go home
G C Am7
Let me go home, I wanna go home - oh yeah
G D7 G
Well, I feel so broke up, I wanna go home
