use a capo on the fifth fret



    Am                                 G            Am

 Ye bully boys of Liverpool, and I'll have you all beware

  Am                                    G               Am

 When you sail on them packet ships,no dungaree jackets wear

      C                 Am         C            (G)

 But have a big monkey jacket all ready to your hand

            Am                               G                Am

 For there blow some cold nor'westers on the banks of Newfoundland



 Chorus:



       C                    Am             C               G

 We'll scrape her and we'll scrub her,With holy stone and sand

            Am                               G             Am

 For there blow some cold nor'westers on the banks of Newfoundland





 We had Jack Lynch from Ballynahinch,Mike Murphy and some more

 an' I tell you b’ys,  well they suffered like hell

 on their way to Baltimore

 They pawned their gear in Liverpool

 and they sailed as they did stand

 But there blow some cold nor'westers

 on the banks of Newfoundland



 Chorus



 Now the mate he did stand on the foc'sle head

 and loudly he did roar

 "Come rattle her in me lucky lads,

 You're bound for America's shore.

 Come wipe the blood off the dead man's face

 And haul or you'll be damned!"

 For there blow some cold nor'westers

 on the banks of Newfoundland



 Chorus...Am 



 So now we're off the hook me boys,

 and the land is white with snow

 and soon we'll see the pay table

 and we'll spend the night below

 And on the docks, come down in flocks,

 why,those pretty girls will say

 "It's snugger with me then out on the sea,

 on the banks of Newfoundland!"



 Chorus
