[Verse 1]
[Am]Me b[G]ully[Am] boys of Liverpool
[C]I'd [Am]have you to be[G]ware
[Am]When you sail in a package [C]ship
No [Am]dungaree jumpers wear
But [C]have a big monkey [Am]jacket
All [C]ready [Am]to your [G]hand
For there [Am]blows some cold
Nor 'westers on the banks
of Newfoundland
We'll scrape her and we'll scrub her
with [C]holy [G]stone and sand
And we'll [Am]think of them cold
Nor 'westers [G]on the [Am]banks
of Newfoundland
There was Jack Lynch from Ballina Hinch,
Mike [G]Murphy [Am]an d some mo[G]re
I [Am]tell you, well, they suffered like [C]hell
on the [Am]way to Baltimore
They'd [C]pawned their gear in [Am]Liverpool,
and they sailed as they did [G]stand
And their [Am]blowsome cold
Nor 'westers on the banks
of Newfoundland
We'll scrape her and we'll scrub her
with [G]holy [Am]stone and [G]sand
And we'll [Am]think of them cold
Nor 'westers [G]on the [Am]banks
of Newfoundland
The maidies stood
and the folks led
and loudly did [G]roar
Now [Am]rattle their enemy,
lucky [C]lads,
we're bound for [Am]America's shore
Go [C]wash the [G]mud off that
[C]dead man's [Am]face
and heave to beat the [G]band
For there [Am]blows some cold
Nor 'westers on the [C]banks
of [Am]Newfoundland
We'll [C]scrape her and we'll [Am]scrub her
with holy stone and [G]sand
And we'll [Am]finger them cold
Nor 'westers on the banks
of Newfoundland
So now it's reef and reef, me [C]boys,
with the [Am]canvas frozen [G]hard
And it's [Am]mountain pass every
mother's [C]son
on a [Am]90 -foot topsoil yad
Never [C]mind about boots
and [Am]oil skin[C]s,
but holler you'll be [G]damned
Father [Am]blows some cold
Nor 'wester's [G]on the [C]banks
of [Am]Newfoundland
We'll [G]scrape her and we'll [Am]scrub her
With [C]holy stone and [G]sand
and we'll [Am]think of them cold
Nor [C]'wester's [G]on the
[C]banks of [Am]Newfoundland
And now we're off the hook, me boys,
and the land's all white with [G]snow
But [Am]soon we'll see the pay table
[G]end [C]up all [Am]night below
[C]And on the docks come
[Am]down in flocks
them pretty girls will [G]stand
Saying it's [Am]snugger with me
than it is at [G]sea
on the [C]banks of [Am]Newfoundland
So we'll [C]scrape her and we'll [Am]scrub her
With [C]holy stone and [G]sand
For [Am]while we're here we can be there
On the banks of [Am]Newfoundland
