[Intro]
C G C

[Verse 1]
C Am
Oh, there was a lofty ship and she sailed on the sea
F G
And the name of the ship it was the Golden Vanity
C Am
But she feared she would be taken by a Turkish enemy
F G C Am
As she sailed on the lowland, lowland low
F G C
She sailed upon the lowland sea

[Verse 2]
C Am
Then up steps the cabin boy just the age of twelve and three
F G
And he says to the skipper, “What will you give to me
C Am
If I swim alongside o' your Turkish enemy
F G C Am
And I sink here in the lowland, lowland low
F G C
I sink her in the lowland sea?”

[Verse 3]
C Am
“Oh, I will give you silver, and I will give you gold
F G
And the hand of my daughter if you would be so bold
C Am
As to swim alongside o' that Turkish enemy
F G C Am
And to sink her in the lowland, lowland low
F G C
To sink her in the lowland sea.”

[Verse 4]
C Am
Then the boy he made all ready and overboard jumped he
F G
And he swam alongside of that Turkish enemy 
C Am
And with his little drilling tool he bor-ed holes three
F G C Am
And he sank her in the lowland, lowland, lowland
F G C
He sank her in the lowland sea

[Verse 5]
