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