Verse
C# B F# C#
Now the ice still clings to the rocks in the harbour
B F# C#
And the men are out pounding in Uncle Jim's shed,
C# B F# C#
For there's traps to be built and more to be mended,
B F# C#
No time for to waste for there's work to be done.
[Chorus]
F# C# G#
For a fisherman knows that life don't come easy,
F# C# G#
What he builds with his hands must come tumbling down.
F# A#m G# C#
But then how could l ife be any other way?
[Verse 2]
C# B F# C#
With the courage that God gives and his forefathers' know-how
B F# C#
They have clung to the shores like kelp to the rocks.
B F# C#
Generations of hardships have all been forgotten,
B F# C#
With a grin and a chuckle they know life must go on.
[Chorus]
F# C# G#
For a fisherman knows that life don't come easy,
F# C# G#
What he builds with his hands must come tumbling down.
F# A#m G# C#
But then how could l ife be any other way?
[Verse 2]
C# B F# C#
And they know of the pleasures of soft, easy living
B F# C#
And they know that with those pleasures come torment and pain'
B F# C#
So they keep on choppin', poundin' and haulin',
B F# C#
For its only the hard work that keeps a man sane.
[Chorus]
F# C# G#
For a fisherman knows that life don't come easy,
F# C# G#
What he builds with his hands must come tumbling down.
F# A#m G# C#
But then how could l ife be any other way?
[Verse 2]
C# B F# C#
Now the ice still clings to the rocks in the harbour,
B F# C#
But the boys are still sleepin' at quarter to two.
B F# C#
They'll be drinkin' and smokin' and dealing with boredom,
B F# C#
For it’s hard when you're idle and no work to do.
[Chorus]
F# C# G#
For a fisherman knows that life don't come easy,
F# C# G#
What he builds with his hands must come tumbling down.
F# A#m G# C#
But then how could l ife be any other way?
