Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Difficulty: Novice

Verse 1:
       Em         B7            Em
It's a damn tough life full of toil and strife
   Em        B7   Em
We whalermen undergo.
                    B7            Em      B7
And we don't give a damn when the gale is done
    Em        B7        Em
How hard the winds did blow.
          G                       D
For we're homeward bound from the Arctic ground
       Em                  B7
With a good ship, taut and free.
       Em           B7            Em        B7
And we don't give a damn when we drink our rum
         Em       B7  Em
With the girls of Old Maui.

Chorus:
        G              D
Rolling down to Old Maui, me boys

Rolling down to Old Maui.

We're homeward bound from the Arctic ground,

Rolling down to Old Maui.


Verse 2:
     Em      B7           Em        B7
Once more we sail with a northerly gale
            Em      B7       Em
Through the ice and wind and rain.
             B7            Em       B7
Them coconut fronds, them tropical lands
   Em          Bm    Em
We soon shall see again.
    G                   D
Six hellish months have passed away
       Em             B7
On the cold Kamchatka Sea.
    Em        B7              Em     B7
But now we're bound from the Arctic ground
        Em      B7    Em
Rolling down to Old Maui.

We're homeward bound from the Arctic ground,

Rolling down to Old Maui.


Verse 3:
     Em      B7           Em        B7
Once more we sail with a northerly gale
Em          B7     Em
Towards our island home.
             B7           Em      B7
Our mainmast sprung, our whaling done,
       Em         B7     Em
And we ain't got far to roam.
    G                  D
Our stuns'l bones is carried away,
     Em               B7
What care we for that sound?
  Em     B7       Em    B7
A living gale is after us,
      Em        B7       Em
Thank God we're homeward bound.


Chorus:
        G              D
Rolling down to Old Maui, me boys

Rolling down to Old Maui.
      Em       B7              Em     B7
We're homeward bound from the Arctic ground,

Rolling down to Old Maui.


Verse 4:
    Em       B7                  Em     B7
How soft the breeze through the island trees,
        Em     B7   Em
Now the ice is far astern.
            B7           Em       B7
Them native maids, them tropical glades
      Em       B7    Em
Are a-waiting our return.
     G                   D
Even now their big brown eyes look out
       Em               B7
Hoping some fine day to see
    Em    B7              Em       B7
Our baggy sails runnin' 'fore the gales
        Em      B7    Em
Rolling down to old Maui.



Final Chorus:
        G              D
Rolling down to Old Maui, me boys

Rolling down to Old Maui.
      Em       B7              Em     B7
