[Verse 1]
Em Bm D Em
Kind friends and companions, come join me in rhyme
G Bm Em D
Come lift up your voices in chorus with mine;
G Bm Em D
Come lift up your voices all grief to refrain
Em Bm D Em
For we may or might never all meet here again
[Chorus]
Em Bm D Em
Here's a health to the company and one to my lass
G Bm Em D
Let us drink and be merry all out of one glass;
G Bm Em D
Let us drink and be merry all grief to refrain
Em Bm D Em
For we may or might never all meet here again
[Verse 2]
Em Bm D Em
Here's a health to the dear lass that I love so well
G Bm Em D
For her style and her beauty, sure none can excel
G Bm Em D
There's a smile on her countenance as she sits on my knee
Em Bm D Em
There's no man in this wide world as happy as me
[Chorus]
Em Bm D Em
Here's a health to the company and one to my lass
G Bm Em D
Let us drink and be merry all out of one glass;
G Bm Em D
Let us drink and be merry all grief to refrain
Em Bm D Em
For we may or might never all meet here again
[Verse 3]
Em Bm D Em
Our ship lies at anchor, she's ready to dock
Em Bm D Em
I wish her safe landing, without any shock
Em Bm D Em
If ever I should meet you by land or by sea
Em Bm D Em
I will always remember your kindness to me.
[Chorus]
Em Bm D Em
Here's a health to the company and one to my lass
G Bm Em D
Let us drink and be merry all out of one glass;
G Bm Em D
Let us drink and be merry all grief to refrain
Em Bm D Em
For we may or might never all meet here again
Em Bm D Em
Here's a health to the company and one to my lass
G Bm Em D
Let us drink and be merry all out of one glass;
G Bm Em D
Let us drink and be merry all grief to refrain
Em Bm D Em
For we may or might never all meet here again
