Fishermans Song v1 Silly Wizard
The Fisherman's Song (Arr. Silly Wizard)
(tacet) Am C Dm
By the storm torn shoreline, a woman is standing
The s[Am]pray strung like [C]jewels in the [Am]air
And the [Am]sea near the [C]rocks, near that desolate l[Dm]anding
As [Am]though it had [C]known, she stood [Dm]there[Am]
CHORUS (Exact progression as above)
For she had come down, to condemn that wild ocean
For the murderous loss of her man
His boat sailed out, on Wednsday mornin'
And its feared she's gone down, with all hands.
More Verses:
Oh, and white were the wavecaps, and wild was their parting
So fierce is(as) the warring of love
But she prayed to the Gods, both of men and of sailors
Not to cast their cruel nets o'er her love
CHORUS
There's a school on the hill, where the son's of dead fathers
Are led towards tempests and gails
Where their God given wings, are clipped close to their bodies
And their eyes are bound round, with ship's sails.
CHORUS
What force leads a man, to a life filled with danger
Aye, when seas are a mile, and are grand
Its when need is his master, and poverty's no stranger
And there's no other work to be found.
CHORUS
