Tuning: Standard (E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD G+G BB E MajorE)

INTRO:
    A minorAm   C majorC    FF    C majorC
    FF    C majorC    G+G    C majorC

VERSE 1:
C majorC        G+G      C majorC      G+G
I could be a fisher, 'cause I have a friend
     C majorC   FF      C majorC      G+G
Who's buying a boat of his own when he can
     C majorC    G+G       C majorC     G+G
And he lives in a tiny and a timeless old town
    C majorC      FF       G+G     C majorC
At the end of an island where the sea rushes down.

BRIDGE:
   A minorAm      G+G       FF      C majorC
And early each morning with the sun barely risen
    FF     C majorC            G+G
With dreams of a lost love and no sign of fear
   C majorC      G+G     C majorC     G+G
He heads for the ocean in lumbering stride
    C majorC      FF      G+G      C majorC
And he sets out to sea with the sun in his eyes


VERSE 2:
    C majorC    G+G     C majorC      G+G
And he told me if I get tired of the race
    C majorC       FF      C majorC     G+G
And I can't keep a hold on my passion and pace
     C majorC      G+G     C majorC      G+G
I could sleep in his kitchen and ride on the waves
   C majorC      FF      C majorC      G+G
And learn about fishin' and learn to be brave
    C majorC      G+G      C majorC      G+G
In the face of a roller with my face to the wind
   C majorC      FF       G+G       C majorC
And fill up the bait bags and pull lobsters in


CHORUS:
   A minorAm     G+G       FF      C majorC
And today as I wonder what's a-waitin' for me
   FF    C majorC        G+G      C majorC
I long for Arowsic and the sound of the sea


VERSE 3:
  C majorC        G+G      C majorC     G+G
And I could be a farmer 'cause I have a way
    C majorC      FF       C majorC       G+G
With plants and I make them grow well, so they say
      C majorC        G+G      C majorC     G+G
And I've worked some at plowing those rocky old fields
    C majorC      FF         G+G     C majorC
With a broken down horse plow that I bought on a deal


VERSE 4:
     A minorAm     G+G        C majorC
Ah but no one works harder than the farmers and fools
     FF         C majorC               G+G
And you can't learn the business in your books or your schools
      C majorC      G+G      C majorC       G+G
You just take what it gives you and give what you can
   C majorC       FF       G+G       C majorC
But a man could be worse than be one with the land


CHORUS:
   A minorAm     G+G       FF     C majorC
And today as I wonder what's a-waitin' for me
  FF      C majorC       G+G      C majorC
I long for the hills and what they gave to me
