Amsterdam

Akkoorden in dit liedje

       Am                           E 
In the port of Amsterdam, there’s a sailor who sings
         F                              E7     
Of the dreams that he brings, from the wide open sea
        Am                           E              
In the port of Amsterdam, there’s a sailor who sleeps
           F         E7           Am    
While the riverbank weeps, to the old willow tree

        C                            G          E          
In the port of Amsterdam, there’s a sailor who dies
         Am                           E7        
Full of beer, full of cries, in the drunken town fight
        F                            E     
In the port of Amsterdam, there’s a sailor who’s born
      Dm7       E7           Am         
On a hot muggy morn, by the dawns early light
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        Am                           E     
In the port of Amsterdam, where the sailors all meet
           F                     E7            
There’s a sailor who eats, only fish heads and tails
            Am                           E    
And he’ll show you his teeth, that have rotted too soon
          F           E7               Am  
That can haul up the sails, that can swallow the moon
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        C                          G7         E7
And he yells to the cook, with his arms open wide 
       Am                          E7   
Hey, bring me more fish, throw it down by my side
       F                             E      
And he once sought to belch, but he too full to try
        Dm7            E7           Am    
So he stands up and laughs, and he zips up his fly
