Oh, where is my sailor boy? Oh, where is my sailor boy?

He sleeps in the bottom of the deep blue sea

I stand on the beach alone and gaze at the misty blue
F C
Deep sea ere you hold him to your breast
G C
Does he mention my name to you?
[Chorus]

Oh, what does the deep sea say? Oh, what does the deep sea say?
F C G C
It moans, it groans, oh it splashes and foams, and rolls on it's weary way

Oh please tell me deep blue sea, is he sleeping peacefully?

If only my dreaming soul, some token or sign could find

If only the waves would show me where he sleeps

I would leave this world behind

A beautiful rose one day, I placed on the crest of a wave

So wave take another message to my love

Saying I'll meet him above
[Chorus]

Oh, what does the deep sea say? Oh, what does the deep sea say?
F C G C
It guards, it holds true lovers, and sleeps, and rolls on its weary way
