[Verse 1]
The [Am]Diamond
is a [Em]ship, my boys, for
[Am]Greenland she [Em]is bound
An[Am]d the quays are fu[Em]ll of ships
[C]with [Em]money and [D]lattes round
[Am]The captain gives the orde[Em]r
to [Am]sail the ocean wide
[Em]Well, the sun,[Am] it never sets,[Em]
my lad[C]s, or dark[Am]ness fills the sky
So cheer up, lads, let your hearts never fail
For the
Barney's ship, the
Diamond, is a -fishin' [D]for the [Am]whale
Along the quay, old
[Em]Peter
Eddell, [Am]as we stand around
[Em]With[Am] our shores apar[C]t,
our head[Em]s and salt is runnin' do[Am]wn
I'll never weep, my [Em]bonnie lad,
though [Am]I'm left behind
[Em]There's not [Am]a rose in green last[Em]
ice to [Am]make you change your mind
So cheer up, my lads,
let your hearts never fail
For the bonnie ship, the diamond,
is a -fishin' [D]for the [Am]whale
It's a health to the resolution,
[Em]like wisel[Am]y glides a swan
[Em]A help[Am] to the battle of
[Em]Monteros and the diamond ship [D]of
[Am]Hame
They wear the trousers [Em]of the white,
the [Am]jackets of the blue
[Em]When they return to[Am]
[Em]Pe terbend they'll find that w[D]ill be[Am] true
So cheer up my lads,
let your hearts never fail
For the barney ship, the diamond,
is a -fishin' [D]for the [Am]whale
It'll be bright both [Em]day and
night when the
[Am]Greenland lads come [Em]home
For the [Am]ships that follow all [Em]my lads
send money to their [Am]name
They'll make their cradles [Em]for to
rock and the [Am]blankets for to [Em]tear
And [Am]every lass in
[Em]Peterhead sings
[Am]Hushed by my dear
So cheer up my lads,
let your hearts never fail
For the bonny ship, the diamond,
is a -fishin' [D]for the wave
So [Am]cheer up, my lads,
let your hearts never fail
For the bonny ship, the diamond,
is a -fishin' [D]for the wave
[Am]
