Fisherman's Blues [C]
Waterboys
[G] [F] [Am] [C]
[G] [F] [Am] [C]
I [G]wish I was a fisherman, [F] tumbling on the seas
[Am] Far away from dry land, and it's [C] bitter memories
[G] Casting out my sweet line, with [F] abandonment and love
[Am] No ceiling bearing down on me, save the [C] starry sky above
With light in my [G]head, with you in my [F]arms, oh oh [Am]oh oh oh [C]oh
[G]Oh oh [F]oh oh [Am]oh [C]
I [G]wish I was the brake man, on a [F]hurtling fevered train
Crashing [Am]headlong into the heartland, like a [C] cannon in the rain
With the [G]beating of the sleepers, and the [F] burning of the coal
[Am] Counting towns flashing by me, in a [C]night that's full of soul
With light in my [G]head, with you in my [F]arms, oh oh [Am]oh oh oh [C]oh
[G]Oh oh[F] oh oh [Am]oh [C]
Oh I [G]know I will be loosened, from [F]bonds that hold me fast
And the [Am]chains all hung around me, [C] will fall away at last
And on that [G] fine and fateful day, I will [F] take thee in my arms
I will [Am]ride the night train, and I will [C] be the fisherman
With light in my [G]head, you in my [F]arms, oh oh [Am]oh oh oh [C]oh.
[G]Oh oh [F]oh oh [Am]oh [C]
With light in my [G]head, with you in my [F]arms, oh oh[Am] oh oh oh [C]oh.
With light in my [G]head, with you in my [F]arms, oh oh[Am] oh oh oh [C]oh.
With light in my [G]head, with you in my [F]arms, oh oh[Am] oh oh oh [C]oh.
