or: C F C F Am F G [Verse 1]
   C                                 F
We just lost sight of the Queensport light

C               F
Round the bay before us

        Am                         F
And the wind has blown some cold today

                         G
With just a wee touch of snow.

 C                       F
Along the shore near Lazyhead

C               F
Hard abeam Half Island

   Am                        F
Tonight we'll let the anchor go

                  C
Down in Fogarty's Cove.
[Verse 2]
   C                        F
My Sally's like the raven's wing

    C                 F
Her hair is like her mother's

     Am                              F
With hands that make quick work of a chore

                           G
And eyes like the top of a stove

     C                           F
Come supper time she'll walk the beach

C                 F
Wrapped in my old duffle

         Am                     F
With her eyes upon the masthead reach

                  C
Down in Fogarty's Cove.
[Chorus]
         Am                      G
She will walk the sandy shore so plain

Dm                Em
Watch the combers roll in

       F                         Am
'Til I come to Wild Rose Chance again

G                 C
Down in Fogarty's Cove

         Am                      G
She will walk the sandy shore so plain

Dm                Em
Watch the combers roll in

       F                         Am
'Til I come to Wild Rose Chance again

G                 C
Down in Fogarty's Cove

[Solo] C F C F Am F G C F C F Am F C [Verse 3]
    C                      F
She cries when I'm away to sea

C                F
Nags me when I'm with her

      Am                      F
She'd rather I'd a government job

                   G
Or maybe go on the dole

      C                       F
But I love her wave as I put about

    C             F
And nose into the channel

   Am                                 F
My Sally keeps a supper and a bed for me

                  C
Down in Fogarty's Cove.
[Chorus]
         Am                      G
She will walk the sandy shore so plain

Watch the combers roll in

       F                         Am
'Til I come to Wild Rose Chance again

G                 C
Down in Fogarty's Cove

         Am                      G
She will walk the sandy shore so plain

Dm                Em
Watch the combers roll in

       F                         Am
'Til I come to Wild Rose Chance again

G                  C
