Fisherman’s Blues The Waterboys
Intro:
[G] [F] [Am] [C]
play it twice
1st verse:
[G]I wish I was a fisherman, [F]tumbling on the seas
[Am]Far away from dry land, and it's [C]bitter memories
[G]Casting you my sweet light with [F]abandonment and love
[Am]No ceiling staring down on me, save the s[C]tarry sky above
Chorus:
With light in my [G]hair, [F]you in my [Am]arms, woo woo [C]ooh
2nd verse:
I wish I was the brake man, on a Hartland diesel train
Crashing headlong into the heartland, like a cannon in the rain
With the beating of the sleepers, and the burning of the coal
Counting towns flashing by me, in a night that's full of soul
Chorus:
[G]Oh I know I will be loosened, [F]from bonds that hold me tight
[Am]And the chains all hung around me will [C]fall away at last
[G]And on that fine and fateful day I will [F]take thee in my arms
[Am]I will ride the night train, and I will [C]be the fisherman
Repeat chorus
