Clew up your royals and tops'ls

Verse:

             A      Em       A
Black twenty-ninth, nineteen-ten

    Em                      B7
The little brig, Daisy, did sail

    Em          D             G
The morning was clear and the sea was down

       Am                    Em
And we raised a great pod of whale

Verse:

                A            Em            A
The captain had three of the boats lowered down

    Em                         B7
And in them the mates they did go

          Em        D         G
There was Mister Da Lomba and Mister Alves

    Am             Em
And Mister Eneos also

Chorus:

     G       F          G
Clew up your royals and tops'ls

          F        G
Haul your heads'ls down

           Em            Am
For you'll never see the whale no more

       Em         D       Em
Or the cold South Georgia ground

Instrumental:
Em  D6  Am  Em

Verse:

               A      Em            A
The whales did rise a mile from the ship

    Em                             B7
And the other two mates made their kill

    Em      D        G
But Mister Eneos was caught in the pod

          Am                Em
Where the whales were lying still

Verse:

        A          Em           A
Mister Eneos stood still in the bow

   Em                   B7
He had his lance in his hand

        Em           D               G
But the whale he had harpooned would not break away

          Am                Em
And would neither sound nor run

Bridge:

   G             F           G
It struck at the boat and it lifted her high

                     F        G
And the men fell out over the stern

   Em                    Am
We saw the flukes come a-thrashing down

      Em      D        Em
Where Mister Eneos had been

Instrumental:
Em  D6  Am  Em

Chorus:

     G       F          G
Clew up your royals and tops'ls

          F        G
Haul your heads'ls down

           Em            Am
For you'll never see the whale no more

       Em         D       Em
Or the cold South Georgia ground

Instrumental:
Em  D6  Am  Em

Verse:

                    A          Em       A
The captain had the stern boat lowered away

       Em                            B7
And we searched where the whales did sound

            Em            D       G
Five men we gathered from out the sea

    Am               Em
But Mister Eneos was gone

Haul your heads'ls down

           Em            Am
For you'll never see the whale no more

       Em         D       Em
Or the cold South Georgia ground
