Chords with lyrics
Verse:
A minorAm
From France we get the Brandy
C majorC
From Martinique the rum
G+G
Sweet red Cabernet
A minorAm
From Italy does come
D MajorD
But the fairest of ‘em all me boys
C majorC
The one to beat the day
G+G
Is made from apples
A minorAm E minorEm
Up the mighty Saguenay
A minorAm
She's called the Dreadnought Cider
C majorC
She's proper and she's fine
G+G
And when the day is over
A minorAm
Sure, I wish that she were mine
D MajorD C majorC
Or in the dark of winter, or on a summer's eve
G+G A minorAm E minorEm
One hand giveth and the other doth receive
Chorus:
A minorAm
So, follow me lads
C majorC
‘cause this 'ain't no grog or ale
G+G A minorAm
One pint down you'll be swingin’ in the gale
D MajorD C majorC
Five pints bully, you’ll be shakin' in your shoes
G+G A minorAm E minorEm
We're half-seas over on the Joli Rouge
A minorAm
So turn your sails over
C majorC
And bring her hard to port
G+G
Find that little star and fly
A minorAm
Straight into the north
D MajorD
The wild sun upon your back
C majorC
The wind a-blowing free
G+G
You're rolling down the river boys
A minorAm E minorEm
To old Chicoutimi
Chorus:
A minorAm
So, follow me lads
C majorC
‘cause this 'ain't no grog or ale
G+G A minorAm
One pint down you'll be swingin’ in the gale
D MajorD C majorC
Five pints bully, you’ll be shakin' in your shoes
G+G A minorAm E minorEm
We're half-seas over on the Joli Rouge
A minorAm
So you can have a Magners
C majorC
And pour it over ice
G+G
Or you can have a Strongbow
A minorAm
If it's sadness that you like
D MajorD
Or join us up the river
C majorC
And we'll set your heart aglow
G+G
And how you'll feel
A minorAm E minorEm
When the real cider starts to flow
Chorus:
A minorAm
So, follow me lads
C majorC
‘cause this 'ain't no grog or ale
G+G A minorAm
One pint down you'll be swingin’ in the gale
D MajorD C majorC
Five pints bully, you’ll be shakin' in your shoes
G+G A minorAm E minorEm
We're half-seas over on the Joli Rouge
Chorus:
A minorAm
So, follow me lads
C majorC
‘cause this 'ain't no grog or ale
G+G A minorAm
One pint down you'll be swingin’ in the gale
D MajorD C majorC
Five pints bully, you’ll be shakin' in your shoes
G+G A minorAm E minorEm
We're half-seas over on the Joli Rouge
