Verse 1
With (G major) our nets and gear we're faring
On the wild and waste (C major) ful (G major) ocean
It's out there on the deep (C major) ,
that we harvest and (G major) reap our bread
As we hunt the pony shores (C major) of (G major) (D major) Herring
(G major) It was an affair an (C major) d a (D major) pleasant day
(G major) Out of Yarmouth Harbour I was (D major) farin'
As a (G major) cabin (C major) boy (A minor) on a (D major) sailing lug (G major) ger
For to hunt the bonnie shoals (C major) of (D major) Herring
(G major) Now the work was hard
(C major) an d the (D major) hours were (G major) long
And the treatment sure it
took some (D major) bearin'
And I (G major) used to (C major) sleep stand (A minor) ing (D major) on my (G major) feet
As I dreamed about the (C major) shoals (D major) of herring
(G major) Now we left the home grounds
(C major) in the (D major) month of (G major) June
And for canny shields we
soon were (D major) bearing
With a hun (G major) dred crown
(C major) of (D major) the silver (G major) darling
That we've taken from the
(C major) shoals of (D major) herring
(G major) Now you're up on deck,
(C major) you're a (D major) fisherman
(G major) And you're learning
all about sea (D major) faring
That's your (G major) educa (C major) tion,
(D major) scraps of navigation
(G major) And you're following the (C major) shoals of (D major) herring
(G major) Your little old man now,
(C major) boy, you're (D major) on the (G major) move
You can swear or show a manly (D major) pairing
Take your (G major) turn on (C major) deck with
(D major) the other fel (G major) las
As you're searching
for the (C major) shoal of (D major) herring
(G major) On the stormy seas (C major) and the (D major) living gales
(G major) I earned the gear that I was (D major) wearing
Sailed ten (G major) thousand (C major) miles,
(D major) caught ten million (G major) fishes
As we hunted for the (C major) shoals of (D major) her (G major) ring
And it's night and day
we're (D major) faring (G major)
Come winter (C major) wave or winter gale
(D major) Sweating (G major) or cold, (C major)
Growing (G major) up , growing (C major) old, or (G major) dy ing (E minor)
We (G major) will haunt the bonnie
shores (C major) of (G major) (D major) Herring (G major) you
shoals of herring
