Chords for Liam Clancy - Shoals Of Herring

With our nets and gear we're _ _ faring _
_ _ On the _ wild and [G#] _ _ _
[E] _ wasteful _ _ ocean
_ _ [A] It's out there on the deep
That we harvest and reap our bread _ _ _ _ _
As we _ _ [D] hunt the bunny _ _ shoals [Em] _ of _
_ [A] _ _ _ herring
_ It was on a fair and a pleasant day
Out of the arm of the harbour I [E] was faring
[A] As a [D] cabin boy on a [A] sailing lover
For to hunt the bunny [D] [A] shoals of herring
_ _ Oh we left the home [D] grounds in the [A] month of June
And for canny shields we soon [E] were bearing
[A] With the [D] hundred crown of the [A] silver darlings
That we'd taken from the shoals of herring
_ _ Now the work was hard and the hours were long
And the treatment sure it took [E] some bearing
[A] And I [D] used to sleep standing [A] on my feet
And I'd dream about the shoals of herring
_ _ You're net rope man [D] now boy you're [A] on the move
You can swear and show a [E] manly bearing
Take [A] your [D] turn on deck with the [A] other fellas
As you're following the shoals of _ herring
_ Now you're up on [D] deck you're [A] a fisherman
And you're learning all about [E] _ seafaring
[A] That's your [D]
education scraps of [A] navigation
As you hunt the bunny shoals of _ herring
_ In the stormy [D] seas and the [A] living gales
I'd be earned the gear that I was [E] wearing
Sail ten [A] [D] thousand miles, cut ten million [A] fishes
As we hunted for the shoals of herring _ _ _ _
And it's night and day [E] we're fed
[A] _ _ _
_ _ _ Come winter [D] _ _ wave [B] or winter [E] _ _ _ _
gale
[D] Sweating our _ _ coat, [A] growing up, growing [D] old [A] or dying
_ [F#] _ _
We _ _ [A] _ will _ _ hunt the [D] bunny _ _ _ shoals _ [C#m] _ [E] of [A] _ _
_ _ _ herring _
