The Final Trawl

                    C    Dm7                C
Now it's three long years since we made her pay
            F               C
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
        G/B    Am                     F
And the owners say that she's had her day
            Dm              G
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O

          C      Dm7            C
So heave away now for the final trawl
            F               C
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
        G/B  Am                     F
It's an easy pull, for the catch is small
            Dm              G
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O

          C         Dm7          C
Stow your gear, lads, and batten down
            F               C
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
          G/B     Am                  F
And we'll say farewell to the fishing ground
            Dm             G
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O

               C      Dm7              C
We'll join the Venture and the Morning Star
            F               C
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
       G/B      Am               F
Riding high and empty beyond the bar
            Dm
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O

               C        Dm7            C
For I'd rather beach her on the Skerry Rock
            F               C
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
        G/B   Am                         F
Than to see her torched on the breaker's dock
            Dm              G
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O

       C  Dm7               C
When I die, you can stow me down
            F               C
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
       G/B   Am                       F
In her rusty hold, where the breakers pound
            Dm             G
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O

                 C            Dm7      C
Then I'll make a haven out of Fiddlers Green
            F               C
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
          G/B    Am                     F
Where the rum is good and the bunks are clean
           Dm             G
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O

           C         Dm7     C
I fished a lifetime, boy and man
            F               C
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
        G/B   Am                     F
And the final trawl scarcely makes a cran
            Dm             G
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O

           C              Dm7      C
Three long years since we made her pay
            F               C
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
        G/B    Am                     F
And the owners say that she's had her day
            Dm              G
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
