Intro
F A# F
With our nets and gear we're faring
F C F
On the wild and wasteful ocean
F A# F
Its there that we hunt and we earn our bread
F A# C F
As we hunted for the shoals of herring
[Verse 1]
F A# F
O it was a fine and a pleasant day
F C
Out of Yarmouth harbor I was faring
C F A# F
As a cabinboy on a sailing lugger
F A# C F
For to go and hunt the shoals of herring
[Verse 2]
F A# F
O the work was hard and the hours long
F C
And the treatment, sure it took some bearing
C F A# F
There was little kindness and the kicks were many
F A# C F
As we hunted for the shoals of herring
[Verse 3]
F A# F
O we fished the Swarth and the Broken Bank
F A# C
I was cook and I'd a quarter sharing
C F A# F
And I used to sleep standing on my feet
F A# C F
And I'd dream about the shoals of herring
[Verse 4]
F A# F
O we left the homegrounds in the month of June
F A# C
And to Canny Shiels we soon were bearing
C F A# F
With a hundred cran of silver darlings
F A# C F
That we'd taken from the shoals of herring
[Verse 5]
F A# F
Now you're up on deck, you're a fisherman
F C
You can swear and show a manly bearing
C F A# F
Take your turn on watch with the other fellows
F A# C F
While you're searching for the shoals of herring
[Verse 6]
F A# F
In the stormy seas and the living gales
F A# C
Just to earn your daily bread you're daring
C F A# F
From the Dover Straits to the Faroe Islands
F A# C F
As you're following the shoals of herring
[Verse 7]
F A# F
O I earned my keep and I paid my way
F A# C
And I earned the gear that I was wearing
C F A# F
Sailed a million miles, caught ten million fishes
F A# C F
We were sailing after shoals of herring
