One of my favorite songs of all time. This is based off a live version on Youtube somewhere.

CAPO 4

CHORUS:
C/GC/G
Ill ya ho, boys; let her go, boys;

Bring her round, now all together.

Wives are waiting on the bank, or
        G7G7    C/GC/G  G7G7
Looking seaward from the heather;
     C/GC/G     G7G7    C/GC/G
Pull her round boys! and we'll anchor.

Ere the sun sets at Mingulay.
