Banks of Newfoundland Great Big Sea
Ye bully boys of L[Am]iverpool, and I'll have you all bew[G]are[Am]
W[Am]hen you sail on them packet ships,no d[G]ungaree jackets [Am]wear
But h[C]ave a big monkey j[Am]acket all r[C]eady to your [(G)]hand
For there b[Am]low some cold nor'westers on the [G]banks of Newfound[Am]land
Chorus
We'll [C]scr*pe her and we'll [Am]scrub her,With [C]holy stone and s[G]and
For there b[Am]low some cold nor'westers on the [G]banks of Newfo[Am]undland
We [Am]had Jack Lynch from Ballynahinch,[G]Mike Murphy and some [Am]more
an' I [Am]tell you b?ys, well they suffered like hell on their [G]way to Baltim[Am]ore
They [C]pawned their gear in [Am]Liverpool and they [C]sailed as they did[(G)] stand
But there [Am]blow some cold nor'westers on the [G]banks of Newfound[Am]land
Chorus
We'll [C]scr*pe her and we'll [Am]scrub her,With [C]holy stone and s[G]and
For there b[Am]low some cold nor'westers on the [G]banks of Newfo[Am]undland
Now the [Am]mate he did stand on the foc'sle head and [G]loudly he did [Am]roar
"Come [Am]rattle her in me lucky lads, You're [G]bound for America's [Am]shore.
Come [C]wipe the blood off the [Am]dead man's face And [C]haul or you'll be [(G)]damned!"
For there [Am]blow some cold nor'westers on the [G]banks of Newfound[Am]land
Chorus...
We'll [C]scr*pe her and we'll [Am]scrub her,With [C]holy stone and s[G]and
For there b[Am]low some cold nor'westers on the [G]banks of Newfo[Am]undland
So [Am]now we're off the hook me boys, and the [G]land is white with [Am]snow
and [Am]soon we'll see the pay table and we'll [G]spend the night be[Am]low
And [C]on the docks, come [Am]down in flocks, why,those [C]pretty girls will [(G)]say
"It's [Am]snugger with me then out on the sea, on the [G]banks of Newfound[Am]land!"
Chorus
We'll [C]scr*pe her and we'll [Am]scrub her,With [C]holy stone and s[G]and
For there b[Am]low some cold nor'westers on the [G]banks of Newfo[Am]undland
We'll [C]scr*pe her and we'll [Am]scrub her,With [C]holy stone and s[G]and
For there b[Am]low some cold nor'westers on the [G]banks of Newfo[Am]undland
