Chords: The Watchet Sailor

From: Greum

I've been struggling working out chords for The Watchet Sailor for some while. I don't know why I've found it so difficult. I have come up with the following:

E | "Am"AAA | "C"(cE)F | (GA)G | "Am"E2
w:As I was a wal-king down Wat-chet Swain Street
C | "Em"(GG)G | AGE | "Dm"DCD | "Am"E2
w:A jol-ly old ship-mate I chanced for to meet
(B | c)(Bc) | "Dm"(dc)d | (ec)A | "Em"(AG)
w:"Hel-lo bro-ther sail-or you're wel-come to home_
E | "Dm"(FE)D | "Am"(EA)G | "Em"AcB | "Am"A2
w:In sea-son to Wat-chet I think you are come."

Can anyone improve on these?
