[Intro] D F#7 Bm G D A D A
D               F#7
Sailors and Fishermen

   Bm               G
go down to the harbor where

D               A          D    A
many a good soul set sail

D                         F#7
But the ships they have gone

          Bm            G
with the hake and the cod

D          A       D
never to return again

          Bm                A
Without nets lives are torn

            G                   D
without a captain forever moored

        Bm        A                F#7
All aboard’s requiem haunts the waves

          D             A
With no hands upon deck

        F#7              Bm
and no love waving back

        D       A               D
Oh darling, we’ve lost our way

    G                           D
So hail to the sailors and fishermen

Em            A        D       F#7
Hail to their last serenade
[Interlude] Bm G D A D A
D               F#7         Bm          G
Tinkers and travelers born to our caravans

         D          A                    D    A
though ivy grows wild round their doors

                D            F#7
But like the horse and the cart

          Bm            G
there’s no turning back

   D             A              D
So welcome to our fixed abode

                Bm            A
They say a song’s never done

            G                      D
while the song’s still being sung

        Bm                A          F#7
but a voice with the road disappears

        D               A
Our traditions now spent

          F#7             Bm
With no cash for the rent

        D               A           D
Left standing with no place to go

    G                           D
So hail to the sailors and fishermen

G                               A
hail to their ghosts that remain

        D               F#7               Bm               G
So goodbye to your dreamers, vagabonds and true believers

D          A            Bm
long may sing once again

         Em              A             Bm
I said long may you sing once again
[Interlude] G F#7 Bm

Lai dai-de-dai dai-de-dai dai-de-dai-dai

Lai dai-de-dai dai-de-dai dai-de-dai-dai de-dai

Lai

           G
May this life take you there

           Bm
May this life take you there

           F#7
May this life, may this life

           F#7                                 Bm
May this life, may this life take you there

           G
May this life take you there

           Bm
May this life take you there

           F#7
May this life, may this life

           F#7                                 Bm
May this life, may this life take you there

    G                           D
Ah, hail to the sailors and fishermen

G                               A
hail to their ghosts that remain

        D              F#7               Bm              G
So goodbye to your dreamers, vagabonds and true believers

D              A            D
long may you sing once again

             D              F#7                 Bm                  G
I said goodbye to your dreamers, you vagabonds and true believers

D              A            D
long may you sing once again
