Fingerstyle arrangement and guitar tab for Spanish Ladies, by Evan Handyside.
"Spanish Ladies" is a traditional British naval song, dating back, by some estimates, to the 1620's. The song is considered a sea shanty; work songs sung by merchant sailors.
I first heard this tune as a kid when Quint (played by actor Robert Shaw) sang Spanish Ladies in the film, JAWS. Shaw was a well known alcoholic, and was drunk during most, if not all of the filming of JAWS. The character of Quint was also a drunken sailor type -- so this was some 'more than convenient' method acting on Shaw's part. He's the best character in the film, and in the Spanish Ladies scene -- he's clearly lit.
[The most popular modern incarnation of the song is from the game, Assassin's Creed IV, Black Flag.]
My fingerstyle guitar version has more of a haunting, Celtic vibe to it. It's available on all streaming services too:
