Well Rant And Well Roar Chords

(ver. 1)
Chris Andrews
[Chorus]
      D
We'll rant and we'll roar
     G            A
like true Newfound-landers,
      A
We'll rant and we'll roar
   G        A
on deck and below,
  D                   G
Until we see bottom in-side
          A
of two sunkers,
       D                     G
Then straight through the channel
   A            D
to Toslow we'll go.

[Verse 1]

  D
My name it is Robert,
    G           A
they call me Bob Pittman,
A
I sail on the Ino
                 D
with skipper Tom Brown;
D
I'm bound to have Dolly or
G        A
Biddy or Molly,
   G           G
As soon as I'm able
   A         D
to plank the cash down.

[Chorus]

      D
We'll rant and we'll roar
     G            A
like true Newfound-landers,
      A
We'll rant and we'll roar
   G        A
on deck and below,
  D                   G
Until we see bottom in-side
          A
of two sunkers,
       D                     G
Then straight through the channel
   A            D
to Toslow we'll go.

[Verse 2]
        D
I'm the son of a seacook
     G          A
and a cook on a trader,
A
I can dance, I can sing, I can
G             D
reef the main boom;
      D
I can handle a jigger and I
G           A
cuts a fine figure,
    D       G
When-ever I gets in
  A               D
a boat's standing room.

[Chorus]

      D
We'll rant and we'll roar
     G            A
like true Newfound-landers,
      A
We'll rant and we'll roar
   G        A
on deck and below,
  D                   G
Until we see bottom in-side
          A
of two sunkers,
       D                     G
Then straight through the channel
   A            D
to Toslow we'll go.

[Verse 3]
       D
If the voyage is good then
     G          A
this fall I will do it,
A
I want two-pound-ten for
             D
a ring and a priest;
D
A couple of dollars for
G               A
clean shirts and collars,
     D          G
And a handful of coppers
  A         D
to make up a feast.

[Chorus]

      D
We'll rant and we'll roar
     G            A
like true Newfound-landers,
      A
We'll rant and we'll roar
   G        A
on deck and below,
  D                   G
Until we see bottom in-side
          A
of two sunkers,
       D                     G
Then straight through the channel
   A            D
to Toslow we'll go.

[Verse 4]
       D
There's plump little Polly
   G             A
her name is Golds-worthy,
A
There's John Coady's Kitty
         D
and Mary Tibbo;
D
There's Clara from Brule
   G            A
and young Martha Foley,
       D         G
But the nicest of all
     A         D
is my girl from Toslow.

[Chorus]

      D
We'll rant and we'll roar
     G            A
like true Newfound-landers,
      A
We'll rant and we'll roar
   G        A
on deck and below,
  D                   G
Until we see bottom in-side
          A
of two sunkers,
       D                     G
Then straight through the channel
   A            D
to Toslow we'll go.

[Verse 5]
D
Farewell and adieu to ye
G           A
fair ones of Valen,
A
Farewell and adieu to ye
           D
ones in the cove;
D
Now let ye be jolly,
     G        A
don't be melan-choly,
     D           G
For I can't marry all
         A          D
or in the chokey I'd be.

[Chorus]

      D
We'll rant and we'll roar
     G            A
like true Newfound-landers,
      A
We'll rant and we'll roar
   G        A
on deck and below,
  D                   G
Until we see bottom in-side
          A
of two sunkers,
       D                     G
Then straight through the channel
   A            D
to Toslow we'll go.

[Verse 6]
 D
Well I went to a dance one
G           A
night in Fox Harbour,
A
There were plenty of girls as
             D
nice as you'd wish;
D
I spied a young maiden
 G          A
a-chawing on frankgum,
    D            G
Just like a young kitten
 A             D
a-gnawing fresh fish

[Chorus]

    D
OH We'll rant and we'll roar
     G            A
like true Newfound-landers,
      A
We'll rant and we'll roar
   G        A
on deck and below,
  D                   G
Until we see bottom in-side
          A
of two sunkers,
       D                     G
Then straight through the channel
   A            D
to Toslow we'll go..

[Verse 7]
    D
I've bought me a house
    G         A
from Katherine Davis,
A
A twenty-pound bed from
        D
Jimmy Mc-Graw;
D
I'll get me a settle,
 G         A
a pot and a kettle,
   D            G
And then I'll be ready
   A       D
for Biddy -hurrah!

[Chorus]

      D
We'll rant and we'll roar
     G            A
like true Newfound-landers,
      A
We'll rant and we'll roar
   G        A
on deck and below,
  D                   G
Until we see bottom in-side
          A
of two sunkers,
       D                     G
Then straight through the channel
   A            D
to Toslow we'll go..

   D
And here is a health, to the

A
Oderin and Presque,
                D

We'll rant and we'll roar
