Men of these shores made

Pulling up fish from the sea
African slavery trade

Stealing young men to cut sugarcane
New
Bedford and codfish for
Maine
Em
They were building a
D
Em
wall that will always
E
remain
Oh, the crown and the cross,
the musket and the chain,
The white man's religion,
the family name,
Two hundred years later, and
who is to blame?
The captain or the cargo,
D
Em
or the juice of the sugarcane?
Dore man,
D
E
he knows when the riptides will run
D
E
He sets out his net and he waits in the sun
C#m

He thinks of his fam
B

ily and drinks of his
rum
F#

And he waits for the cod fish to come
A
ocean that keeps you alive

It can heal you and steal you
and take you away
C

Like a note in a bottle with nothing to say
Em

Now back when this earth was
D

a silver blue jewel

And back when your grandfather
D

's fathers were young
C#m

Men of these shores
E
made and gave of their lives

Pulling up fish from the sea.
