I saw three ships come sailing in
       F#            C#
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;

I saw three ships come sailing in
       F#              C#     F#
On Christmas Day in the morning.

And what was in those ships all three,

On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day?

The Virgin Mary and Christ were there,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
The Virgin Mary and Christ were there,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
