Oh it was a fine and a pleasant day
G#m F#m E F#m G#m
Out of Yarmouth harbor I was faring
A D F#m
As a cabin boy on a sailing lugger
A D E A
For to hunt the bonny shoals of herring
Now you're up on deck, you're a fisherman
A D A
Night and day the seas were daring
A C E
Come wind oh come more winter again
A D A D F#m
Sweating or cold, growing up, growing old, Or dying
A D E A
As we dream about the shoals of herring
