verse 1: 
                        F            C 
Farewell to Tarwathie, adieu Mormond Hill 
                                F          C 
And the dear land of Crimond, I bid ye farewell 
                   Em            Am       C 
I am bound out for Greenland and ready to sail 
                          F           C     
In hopes to find riches a-hunting the whale  


verse 2: 
                                F             C 
Oh, adieu to my comrades, for a while we must part 
                                F            C 
And likewise the dear lass that first won my heart 
                    Em           Am            C 
Oh, the cold ice of Greenland my love will not chill 
                                F             C       F  C 
And the longer my absence, more loving she'll feel 


verse 3: 
                                  F        C 
Our ship is well rigged and she's ready to sail 
                             F          C 
Our crew they are anxious to follow the whale 
                      Em            Am           C 
Where the icebergs do float and the stormy winds blow 
                                 F            C 
Where the land and the ocean are covered with snow 


verse 4: 
                                 F          C 
The cold coasts of Greenland are barren and bare 
                            F          C 
No seed-time nor harvest is ever known there 
                           Em         Am           C 
Though the birds here sing sweetly on mountain and dale 
                                 F           C 
There is no bird in Greenland to sing to the whale

verse 5: 
                             F           C 
There is no habitation for a man to live there 
                                    F                C 
And the king of that country is the fierce Greenland bear 
                     Em        Am         C 
There will be no temptation to tarry long there 
                                   F          C 
With our ship bumper full, we will homeward repair
