Dm C Dm
D shanty man's life is a wearisome one
C Dm
Though some say it's free from care
A Dm
It's the swinging of an axe
C
From morning 'till night
Dm A# Dm
In the forest wild and drear
Dm C Dm
Transported as we are from a lady so fair
C Dm
To the banks of some lonely stream
A Dm
Where the wolf, bear, and owl
C
Give a terrifying howl
Dm A# Dm
And disturb our nightly dreams
Dm C Dm
Oh sleeping at night in our bunks without cheer
C Dm
While the cold winter winds do blow
A Dm
But as soon as the morning
C
Star does appear
Dm A# Dm
To the wild woods we must go
C Dm
Had we ale, wine, or beer our spirits for to cheer
C Dm
When we're in those woods so wild
A Dm
Where a glass of whiskey shone
C
When we're in the woods alone
Dm A# Dm
For to pass away our long exile
C Dm
Shantying, I’ll give o’er when I landed safe on shore
C Dm
And I’ll lead a different life
A Dm
No more will I roam
C
but contented stay at home
Dm A# Dm
With a happy little smiling wife
C Dm
D shanty man's life is a wearisome one
C Dm
Though some say it's free from care
A Dm
It's the swinging of an axe
C
From morning 'till night
Dm A# Dm
In the forest wild and drear
Dm A# Dm A# Dm
There you go, enjoy!
