Capo at 4th or transpose +4 for original,(or leave like this to sing
with baritones!) (I actually shift 4.3 steps to match original)
Ask if you want chord fingering help.

Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

There's a port, on a western bay, and it serves, a hundred ships a day
C /E Dm Am Dm F C
Lonely sailors, pass the time away, and talk about their homes
C /E Dm Am Dm F Bb F
And there's a girl, in this harbor town, and she works, layin' whiskey down
C /E Dm Am Dm F C
They say Brandy, fetch another round, she serves them whiskey and wine, the sailors say
Am F Am F
Brandy, you're a fine girl What a good wife you would be
C/G G F C/E Dm F/G
Your eyes could steal a sailor, from the sea

Brandy, wears a braided chain, made of the finest silver from the north of Spain
C /E Dm Am Dm F C
A locket, that bears the name, of a man that Brandy loved
C /E Dm Am Dm F Bb F
He came, on a summer's day, bringin' gifts, from far away

But he made it clear, he couldn't stay, no harbor was his home
