[C]
We are nets and gear, [A] we're [C]
farin'
On the [G] wide and wasteful ocean
It's [C] there on the deep that we harvest [F] and reap [C] our bread
As we hunt the bonnie [G] shoals o'er
[C] heaven
Twas a fine and a pleasant summer day
Out a'yar with [G] Hobber I was sparin'
As a cabin boy on [C] a sailin' logger
We were off to hunt the shoals o'er heaven
Well the work was hard and the hours were long
And the tradesmen surely [G] took some barin'
Well [D] there was little kindness and the [C] kicks were many
As we hunted for the shoals o'er heaven
We'd fished us north on the broken bank
I was cookin' I'd a [G] quarter sharin'
And I used to [C] sleep standin' on my feet
And I'd dream about the [G] shoals o'er [C] heaven
Now we left the home ground in the month of June
And for cottage hue [G] we soon were bailin'
We [D] a hundred crang on the [C] silver darlin'
That we'd taken [F] from [G] the shoals o'er [C] heaven
Through the stormy seas and the living gale
Just a'yarn you're bailin' [G] with your darlin'
From [D] the Dover straits to [C] the Faroe Islands
As you're followin' the shoals o'er heaven
[G]
[C]
[F] [C]
You're up on deck, hey, you're a fisherman
You can swear and show how [G] manly bailin'
Take your [Dm] tongue on [C] deck with the other fellas
As you're followin' the shoals o'er heaven
Night and day [D] we're [C] fair
On winter [F] [Am] wind, [G]
sweat or car
[A] [C]
As we hunt the bunny [F]
[G] shoals o'er heaven
[C] [N]
