Come me boys and heave with me, let's get off this cursed sea
Let's be home to lovers and wives and leave behind these four our lives
Four hours working on the swell, four hours slogging in the rain
Four hours working to [F#] the bell, then four hours till it starts [C#] again
[N] Come me boys and heave with me, the wind's my friend and my enemy
It carries me home but it must be tamed, everything lost or everything gained
[B] Four hours working on the swell, four hours slogging in [D#] the rain
Four hours working to the bell, then [F#] four hours till [N] it starts again
Come me boys and heave with me, got scabrous hands and bloody knees
But when the bell tolls I'll go below, my hands will callous and my strength will grow
Four hours working on the swell, four hours slogging in the rain
Four hours working to the bell, [F#] then four hours [D#m] till it [C#] starts again
Come me boys and heave away, [N] soaked and heavy heaving under the spray
Will I ever shed this salt on my brow?
Better the dust from under my plough
Four hours working on the swell, [D] four hours slogging in the [F#] rain
Four hours working to the bell, then four hours till it starts again
When I'm back in Bristol town I'll buy my [G#m] lover a [D#] silken gown
We'll [A#] lie in each other's arms [N] and rest until that bell sounds in my chest
Four hours working on the swell, four hours slogging in the rain
Four hours working to the [F#] bell, then four hours till it [A#] starts again
Four hours [G] hauling on the sheets, four hours keeping our feet
[A#] Four hours wrap me in [G#] the shroud, then [F#] four hours lay me [D#] in [C#] the ground
Let's be home to lovers and wives and leave behind these four our lives
Four hours working on the swell, four hours slogging in the rain
Four hours working to [F#] the bell, then four hours till it starts [C#] again
[N] Come me boys and heave with me, the wind's my friend and my enemy
It carries me home but it must be tamed, everything lost or everything gained
