Intro:
[Am]( Tab[Amsus2] from: ht[Am]tps:/[Amsus2]/www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/stan_rogers/three_fishers_crd_ver_2.html )
Verse 1:
Three [Am]fishers went [Amsus2]sailing out [F]into the [G]west,
Out [Am]into the [Amsus2]west as the [Em]sun went [G]down,
Each [F]thought on the [F]woman that [C]loved him the [G]best,
And the [Am]children stood [Amsus2]watching them [F]out of the [G]town,
Chorus:
For [C]men must [C]work and [F]women must [G]weep,
For there's [Am]little to [Amsus2]earn and [Em]many to [G]keep,
And the [F]harbour [F]bar be [Am]moanin[G]',
The [Am]harbour [F]bar be [G]moanin[C]'.
Verse 2:
Three wives sat up in the lighthouse tower,
They trimmed the lamps as the sun went down,
And they looked at the squall and they looked at the shower,
And the night wrack came rollin' in, ragged and brown.
Chorus
Verse 3:
Three corpses lay out on the shining sand,
In the morning gleam as the tide went down,
And the women were weepin' and wringin' their hands,
For those who would never come back to the town.
