Hi Everyone - from time to time this song has shown up on the net in one form or another. I had to re-learn it for a band and thought I'd share my interpretation. Good luck! - Charlie

E Abm F#m C#m Theres a port on a western bay F#m A D/F# A And it serves a hundred ships a day E Abm F#m Abm C#m Lonely sailors pass the time a way F#m A E And talk about their homes
Theres a girl in this harbor town And she works laying whiskey down They say Brandy, fetch another round She serves them whisky and wine The sailors say...
C#m7 B A Chorus: Brandy, you're a fine girl < you're a fine girl > B C#m7 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/Ab F#m Bsus4 B
Brandy wears a braided chain Made of finest silver from the north of spain A locket that bears the name of the man that Brandy loves He came on a summers day - bearing gifts - from far away But he made it clear he couldnt stay The harbor was his home
- Chorus -
C#m7 B Bridge: Brandy used to watch his eyes A B As he told his sailor stories C#m7 B She 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
At night when the bars close down Brandy walks through a slient town And loves a man who's not around She still can hear him say She hears him say...
