[A] [G]
[D]
In Placentia Bay there sat on the [G] shore A young girl who mourned [C] for her lover's no [A] more
The
[D] pride of his manhood is the prize of [G] the sea [E] And the [A] seagulls still follow [E] on-field
[C] She
[D] reached out her hand to an old [G] man passed by
And [D] she lifted her head [C] with a tear in [A] her eye
[D] Said, sit and I'll tell you a tale of some [G] woe
[E] While the [A] seagulls still follow [D] on-field
[C]
I come from Toronto upon the [G] mainland
And there's many's a thing here [C] that I don't [A] understand
Like [D] why are these young men still [G] slaves to the sea?
When [D] the [A] seagulls still follow [D] on-field
[C] He
[D] said to this young maid as he held [G] her small hand
The [D] sea and its fury [C] are part of [A] this land
[A]
[D] And them who can't take it had better [G] not stay
[A] With the seagulls who follow [E] on-freedom
[C]
[D] Those men who quote figures and count [E] the cause-laws
[G] They [D] see only the high seas [C] and the lies it has [A] caused
[D] They don't see the life as we know it [G] to be
Like [D] the [A] seagulls who follow [D] on-freedom
[C]
[D] So they cheat us and they rob us and continue [G] to say
That our only salvation [C] is leaving [A] the bay
[D] But I'll soon be ninety and there's one [G] thing I know
That [D] the [A] seagulls still follow on-freedom
[C] [E]
