[Verse 1]
Dm C Bb F
Two in the morning, dry-dock town
Dm C Bb F
The river rolls away in the night
Dm C Bb F
Little gypsy moth she's all tied down
Dm C Bb F
She quiver in the wind and the light
Dm C Bb F
Yeah, and a sailing ship just held down in chains
Dm C Bb F
From the lazy days of sail
Dm C Bb F
She's just lying there in silent pain
Dm C Bb F
He lean on the tourist rail
Am Dm
A mother and her baby and the college of war
Bb C
In the concrete graves
Dm C Bb F
You never want to fight against the river law
Gm Bb
Nobody rules the waves
[Chorus]
C C#dim Dm
Yeah and on a night when the lazy wind is a-wailing
Bb C
Around the Cutty Sark
Dm C Bb F
Single handed sailor goes sailing
Gm Bb
Sailing away in the dark
[Instrumental]

Dm C Bb F
He's upon the bridge on the self same night
Dm C Bb F
The mariner of dry dock land
Dm C Bb F
Two in the morning, but there is one green light
