Shoals Of Herring Chords

(ver. 1)
Oscar Isaac
If the A/G# A/F#... chords in the second line are confusing, here's help: The "/" 
simply means the bass note. He plays an A chord and the bass descends down the 
scale to E, where he then plays an E major and the bass walks back to A.


A     \     D   E   A

      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
