[N] [A#]
[A] You can seeyouyo [E] can seeholdho it a minute. I want to just say, you can see now why Tommy and I [G#] had to leave this group and go on our own. [A] We never got a word in [C#] edgewise. [E] You will, you will. [B] I'm going to sing a [A] song called The [D] Shoals of Harry. [B] Down where I live [F] down in Never heard of it. [A#] Down in Helvick in the County Waterford. The fishermen love [D] this song. I'd like to sing [F] particularly actually for an old friend of mine who's in the hospital, Jim Brown. He's a [E] stonemason but he lives on [C#] the pier down there. This is one of his [A] favorites. With our [E] nets and [C#] gear [A] [B] we're [A] farin' on the wild [D] and wasteful [E] ocean. It's [A] out there on the [D] deep that we harvest and reap our [A] bread. [F#m]
As [A] we hunt the [D] bunny shoals [C#] [Bm] off hand. [A] And it was on a [D] fair and a pleasant [A] day out of Yarmouth Harbor I was sparing as a cabin [D] boy on a sailing [A] logger for to hunt the [D] bunny shoals [A] off hand. Oh we left the home grounds in the month of June and for canny shills we soon were bearing with a [D] hundred crown of [A] the silver dollars that we'd taken from the shoals off bearing. Now the work was hard and the hours were long and the treatment sure it took some [E] bearing [A] and I used [Bm] to sleep [A] standing on my feet and I dream about the [Em] shoals off [A] bearing. Now you're a bunny, you're a fisherman and you're learning all about [E] seafaring. [A] That's your [Bm] education [A] scraps of navigation as you hunt the bunny shoals off bearing. In the stormy [F#m] seas and the [A] living gales I'd be on the gear that I was [E] wearing. [A] Sail ten thousand [D] [A] miles, caught ten million fishes as we hunted for the shoals [E] off [A] bearing. And it's night and day we're [B] [A] faring come winter [D] wave or winter [E] gale. [D] [A] Sweating or [D] cold, [A] growing up, [D] growing old [A] or dying [F#m] as [A] we hunt [G#] the bunny [D] shoals off bearing. [Bm] Oh [A]
