Theres a port on a western bay 
       F#m A           D         A 
And it serves a hundred ships a day 
          E   G#m    F#m G#m  C#m7 
Lonely sailors pass the time aWay 
    F#m    A       E 
And talk about their homes

Theres a girl in this harbor town
       F#m A           D        A              
And she works laying whiskey down
          E   G#m    F#m G#m   C#m7		 
They say Brandy, fetch another round 
    F#m    A       E

The sailors say...

Brandy, you're a fine girl (You're a fine girl) 
B      B4          B     A 
What a good wife you would be < such a fine girl > 
Bsus4                  B 
Your eyes could steal a sailor from the sea 
 
Amaj7 E	    F#m   Bsus4 
To Di To Di To Di To Di 
 
Verse III: 
       E  G#m   F#m G#m  C#m7  
Brandy wears a braided chain
       F#m A           D         A 
Made of finest silver from the north of Spain
    E   G#m    F#m G#m   C#m7			
A locket that bears the name
F#m A           D         A
of the man that Brandy loves

 E  G#m   F#m G#m   C#m7 
He came on a summers day
     F#m A      D         A 
bearing gifts from far away
     E  G#m   F#m G#m  C#m7
But he made it clear he couldnt stay
 F#m    A       E 
The harbor was his home...

Brandy, you're a fine girl (You're a fine girl) 
B      B4          B     A 
What a good wife you would be (such a fine girl) 
        Bsus4                  B 
But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea

Bridge: 
C#m7           B 
Brandy used to watch his eyes 
A               B 
As he told his sailor stories 
C#m7           B 
he could feel the ocean fall and rise 
A              B 
She saw its raging glory 
    C#m7          D 
But he had always told the truth 
   C#m7          A 
Lord he was an honest man 
     Bsus4          B 
And Brandy does her best to understand 
 
Amaj7 E	    F#m   Bsus4 
To Di To Di To Di To Di 
 
 
Verse IV: 
          E  G#m   F#m G#m  C#m7         
At night when the bars close down 
       F#m A           D         A 
Brandy walks through a silent town
          E  G#m   F#m G#m  C#m7 		 
She loves a man who's not around 
         F#m    A       E 
She still can hear him say 

She hears him say... 
 
Chorus: 
 
C#m7    B        A	    C#m7    B      A 
Brandy, you're a fine girl (You're a fine girl) 
B      B4          B     A 
What a good wife you would be (such a fine girl) 
Bsus4                  B 
But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea 
 
Amaj7 E	    F#m   Bsus4 
To Di To Di To Di To Di
