Mingulay, this one is called Mingulay, is the shanty as well.
Mingulay is an island, [D] and it's the last, if you were leaving Scotland on your boat, it'd be the last island you would see on the way out, and it'd be the first island you would see on the way back.
So it held a special place in the lives of sailors.
[B]
So it held a special place in the lives of sailors.
When we know that every inch is closer homeward to [C] Mingulay
[D] Heel your ho-boys, let her go-boys, [Abm]
keep her head round him to the weather
Heel [E] your ho-boys, let her go-boys,
[B] sailing [Eb] homeward to Mingulay
Wives are waiting by the pier-head, gazing seaward from the heather
[E] Heel her head round, and we'll anchor [B] ere the sun sets on
[E] Mingulay
Heel your ho-boys, let her go -boys, keep her [B] head round [Em] him to the [E] weather
Heel your ho-boys, let her go-boys, [B] sailing homeward to Mingulay
Sailing homeward to [E]
