Rant And Roar Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Great Big Sea
"Rant and Roar" (Trad/Arr. GBS)
 From "Up" (1995)


 As with many GBS tunes, use a capo on the third fret.
 This one sounds best in DADGAD tuning. 

 intro: D G A D

       D              Bm          G         A
 We'll rant and we'll roar like true Newfoundlanders
        A                      G         A
 We'll rant and we'll roar on deck and below
   D                 Bm     G              A
 Until we strikes bottom inside the two sunkers
        D                     G          A         (C)
 when straight through the channel to Toslow we'll go

 Break: C G D A | C G A |C G D A| C G A |

          D       Bm               G          A
 I'm the son of a sea cook, I'm a cook in a trader
         A                       G             A
 I can dance, I can sing, I can reef the main boom
         D        Bm       G            A 
 I can handle a jigger, I cuts a fine figure
      D      G         A               D
 Whenever I gets in a boat's standing room

 CHORUS, followed by break

 Farewell and adieu to ye young maids of Valen,
 Oderin and Bresque, Fox Hole and Brulee
 I'm bound for the westward to the wall with the hole in
 I can't marry all or in Chokey I'll be

 CHORUS X2 (second time Acapella)
 
 Break, end on A
