G D Am Em7
There’s a port on a western bay
Am C F C
And it serves a hundred ships a day
G D Am Em7
Lonely sailors pass the time away
Am C G
And talk about their homes
G D Am Em7
There’s a girl in this harbor town
Am C F C
And she works laying whiskey down
G D Am Em7
They say Brandy, fetch another round
Am C G
She serves them whisky and wine
The sailors say...
Em D
Brandy, you're a fine girl
Em C
What a good wife you would be
G D G Gsus4
Your eyes could steal a sailor from the sea
G D Am Em7
Brandy wears a braided chain
Am C F C
Made of finest silver from the north of Spain
G D Am Em7 Am C G
A locket that bears the name of the man that Brandy loves
G D Am Em7 Am C F C
He came on a summers day - bearing gifts - from far away
G D Am Em7
But he made it clear he couldn't stay
Am C G
No harbor was his home...
Em D
Brandy, you're a fine girl
Em C
What a good wife you would be
G D G Gsus4
Your eyes could steal a sailor from the sea
Em D
Brandy used to watch his eyes
C D
As he told his sailor stories
Em D
he could feel the ocean fall and rise
C D
She saw its raging glory
Em F
But he had always told the truth
G D
Lord he was an honest man
G D G Gsus4
And Brandy does her best to understand
G D Am Em7
At night when the bars close down
Am C F C
Brandy walks through a silent town
G D Am Em7
And loves a man who's not around
Am C G
She still can hear him say
She hears him say...
Em D
Brandy, you're a fine girl
Em C
What a good wife you would be
G D G Gsus4
Your eyes could steal a sailor from the sea
Em D
Brandy, you're a fine girl
Em C
What a good wife you would be
G D G Gsus4
But my life, my lover, my lady, is the sea
