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