N.C.            C                   F
I was a sailor first, I sailed the sea.
             C              F   Am G7
Then I got a job in a factory.
                C                      F
Played Butlin's Camp with my friend Rory,
                C                     F   Am G7
it was good for him, it was great for me.

With George and Paul and my friend John.

In the U.S.A. when we played Shea.
We were number one. Man, it was fun.
When I look back it sure was cool,
for those four boys from Liverpool.
