Verse 1
C
G
C
With our nets and gear we're ferrying
F
C
On the wild and wasteful ocean
G
F
It's out there on the deep
C
F
C
We harvest and reap our bread
F
C
G
C
As we hunt the bonny shoals of herring
Oh, it was a fine and a pleasant day
G
C
We were following the shoals of herring
Now you're up on deck,
you're a fisherman
with the other fellas
As you're hunting for the
G
C
shoals of herring
Though we fished a swat at the broken bank,
G
C
As we hunted for the shoals of herring
We left the home grounds
in the months of June
And for canny shields we
the silver darlings
That we'd taken from the
G
C
shoals of herring
In the stormy seas and the living gales
Just to earn your daily
the Faroe Islands
And you're hunting for the
G
C
shoals of herring
Well, I earned me keep and
they paid me way
caught ten million fishes
We were hunting after
G
C
shoals of herring
You're net rope man now,
boy you're on the move
And you're learning all
scraps of navigation
As you hunt the bony shoals
G
C
of herring
C
C
Come wind or come our winter gale
F
C
growing old or dying
G
C
As you hunt the bunny shoals of Heron Bay.
