lyrics

The Final Trawl Archie Fisher (the way I play it)

(G) (Em) (G) (Em)
(G)Been three long (Em)years
(C) Since we (D)made her (G)pay,
Haul a(C)way,(D) my laddie-(G)o,
And we can't get (Em)by (C)
On the (D)subsi(Em)dy,
Haul a(Am)way,(Am7) my laddie-(D)o.

Then heave a(G)way (C)
For the (D)final (G)trawl,
Haul a(C)way,(D) my laddie-(G)o,
It's an easy (Em)pull (C)
For the (D)catch is (Em)small,
Haul a(Am)way,(Am7) my laddie-(D)o.

And then you take your (G)gear, (C)lads,
And (D)batten (G)down,
Haul a(C)way,(D) my laddie-(G)o,
And I'll take the (Em)wheel, (C)lads,
And (D)turn her (Em)'round,
Haul a(Am)way,(Am7) my laddie-(D)o.

And we'll join the (G)'Venture' (C)
And the (D)'Morning (G)Star',
Haul a(C)way,(D) my laddie-(G)o,
Riding high and (Em)empty (C)
To(D)wards the (Em)bar,
Haul a(Am)way,(Am7) my laddie-(D)o.

For I'd rather (G)beach her (C)
On the (D)Skerry (G)Rock
Haul a(C)way,(D) my laddie-(G)o,
Than to see her (Em)torched (C)
In the (D)breaker´s (Em)dock
Haul a(Am)way,(Am7) my laddie-(D)o.

And when I (G)die, (C)
You can (D)stow me (G)down,
Haul a(C)way,(D) my laddie-(G)o,
In her rusty (Em)hold (C)
Where the (D)breakers (Em)pound,
Haul a(Am)way,(Am7) my laddie-(D)o.

Then I'd make my (G)haven (C)
The (D)Fiddler's (G)Green,
Haul a(C)way,(D) my laddie-(G)o,
Where the grub is (Em)good (C)
And the (D)bunks are (Em)clean,
Haul a(Am)way,(Am7) my laddie-(D)o.

For I've fished a (G)lifetime, (C)
(D)Boy and (G)man,
Haul a(C)way,(D) my laddie-(G)o,
And the final (Em)trawl (C)
Scarcely (D)nets a (Em)cran,
Haul a(Am)way,(Am7) my laddie-(D)o.

Why no free uploads? I cover songs. Register them with the German music rights agency GEMA. They hopefully reimburse the artists. The tax authorities demand that I make (not lose) a little money each year...
