Tonart: C major•
Verse 1
C
G
C
With our nets and gear we're ferrying
F
C
On the wild and wasteful ocean
G
F
It's out there on the deep
C
F
C
We harvest and reap our bread
F
C
G
C
As we hunt the bonny shoals of herring
Oh, it was a fine and a pleasant day
G
Out of Yarmouth Harbour I was sparing
C
As a cabin boy on a sailing lugger
G
C
We were following the shoals of herring
Now you're up on deck,
you're a fisherman
G
You can swear and show a manly bearing
C
Take your turn and watch
with the other fellas
As you're hunting for the
G
C
shoals of herring
Though we fished a swat at the broken bank,
G
I was cook and I'd a quarter share in
C
And I used to sleep standing on me feet
G
C
As we hunted for the shoals of herring
We left the home grounds
in the months of June
And for canny shields we
C
With a hundred crowns of
the silver darlings
That we'd taken from the
G
C
shoals of herring
In the stormy seas and the living gales
Just to earn your daily
C
From the Dover Straits till
the Faroe Islands
And you're hunting for the
G
C
shoals of herring
Well, I earned me keep and
they paid me way
G
And I earned the gear that I was wearing
caught ten million fishes
We were hunting after
G
C
shoals of herring
You're net rope man now,
boy you're on the move
And you're learning all
scraps of navigation
As you hunt the bony shoals
G
C
of herring
G
Night and day the seas were daring
C
C
Come wind or come our winter gale
C
Sweating or cold, growing up,
F
C
growing old or dying
G
C
As you hunt the bunny shoals of Heron Bay.
