[Verse 1]
[G]I played around in
Chinatown, [C]passin' the time away
[G]When [C]blackjack red hit [G]me on the head,
when [C]I woke up next d[G]ay
I was [C]many miles [G]away
I was shanghaied on an ocean freighter,
I was shanghaied and I ain't no sailor
I was
Shanghai on an ocean freighter,
I [C]want to get back to [G]shore, [C]back to the
Gulf
Coast [G]shore.
They threw me off in old
Hong
Kong and [C]put me on my [G]own, not a [C]penny in my [G]pocket,
ten [C]thousand miles from [G]home.
And that's a [C]mighty long way from [G]home.
Ž I was shanghaied on an ocean freighter
Ž
I was shanghaied and I ain't no sailor
Ž
I was shanghaied on an ocean freighter
Ž
I [C]wanna get back to [G]shore
Ž
[C]Back to the
Gold
Coast [G]shore
Ž
Pick it [C]baby!
[G]Ž[C][G]
I worked for grub on an old
dutch tub and [C]wound up in
L [G].A.
When a [C]pretty little girl took [G]me on a whirl,
[C]when I woke up next [G]day, when [C]I woke up n[G]ext
day.
I was shanghaied for the rest of my life,
I was shanghaied, but that's alright, I was
shanghaied.
Got a pretty little wife and nev
[C]er leaving home no [G]more
Nev[C]er leaving home no [G]more
Shake my hand, shake my hand,
shake my hand
Shake hand, shake my hand, shake my hand
