A D E A
Oh it was a fine and a pleasant day
A/G# A/F# E E/F# E/G#
Out of Yarmouth harbor I was faring
A D F#m
As a cabin boy on a sailing lugger
A D E A
For to hunt the bonny shoals of herring
A E A E
Now you're up on deck, you're a fisherman
You can swear show a manly barren
Take your turn and watch with the other fellas
As you hunt the bonnie shoals of herring
Well I earned my keep and I paid my way
And I earned the gear that I was wearing
I sailed a million mile, caught ten million fishes
We were dreaming of the shoals of herring
A D A
Night and day the seas were daring
A D E
Come wind oh come more winter again
A D A D F#m
Sweating or cold, growing up, growing old, Or dying
A D E A
As we dream about the shoals of herring
