I Courted a Sailor @20

[Verse 1: Kate Rusby]
I courted a sailor for six months and many
I courted a sailor, now he's far from me
I courted a sailor for six months and many
I courted a sailor, now he's far from me

[Pre-Chorus: Kate Rusby]
On a fine summer's evenin', he said his heart was grievin'
A fine summer's evenin', these words he said to me

[Chorus: Kate Rusby]
Oh, I'm bound for the waves, the waves, dearest Annie
Bound for the waves, the waves on the sea
Oh, I'm bound for the waves, the waves, dearest Annie
Bound for the waves, the captain calls me

[Verse 2: Kate Rusby]
My heart has been yours now for six months and many
My heart has been yours now and will always remain
My heart has been yours now for six months and many
My heart has been yours now and will always remain

[Pre-Chorus: Kate Rusby & Jim Causley]
Oh, take with you my ring and my heart you'll always bring
Take with you my ring till you sail away to sea

[Chorus: Kate Rusby & Jim Causley]
Oh, I'm bound for the waves, the waves, dearest Annie
Bound for the waves, the waves on the sea
Oh, I'm bound for the waves, the waves, dearest Annie
Bound for the waves, the captain calls me

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3: Kate Rusby]
I'll wait for my sailor for six months and many
I'll wait for my sailor till he returns to me
I'll wait for my sailor for six months and many
I'll wait for my sailor till he returns to me

[Pre-Chorus: Kate Rusby & Jim Causley]
I'll wait for you my dear, for time love does not fear
I'll wait for you my dear till you come home from the sea

[Chorus: Kate Rusby & Jim Causley]
Oh, I'm bound for the waves, the waves, dearest Annie
Bound for the waves, the waves on the sea
Oh, I'm bound for the waves, the waves, dearest Annie
Bound for the waves, the captain calls me

[Verse 4: Kate Rusby, Kate Rusby & Jim Causley]
I've married my sailor for six months and many
I've married my sailor, now he's safe with me
I've married my sailor for six months and many
I've married my sailor, no more he'll say to me

[Chorus: Kate Rusby & Jim Causley, Kate Rusby]
Oh, I'm bound for the waves, the waves, dearest Annie
Bound for the waves, the waves on the sea
Oh, I'm bound for the waves, the waves, dearest Annie
Bound for the waves, the captain calls me
