Nathan Evans - Wellerman Chords







 Cm

There once was a ship that put to sea


Fm                                                        Cm 

The name of the ship was the Billy of Tea


Cm

The winds blew up, her bow dipped down


Cm

Oh blow, my bully boys, blow (huh)



Ab                                         Eb

Soon may the Wellerman come


Fm                                            Cm

To bring us sugar and tea and rum


Ab                                                Eb

One day, when the tonguing is done


G                                  Cm

We'll take our leave and go



Cm

She'd not been two weeks from shore


Fm                                                  Cm

When down on her a right whale bore


Cm

The captain called all hands and swore


Cm

He'd take that whale in tow (huh)



Ab                                         Eb

Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da



Cm                                           

Before the boat had hit the water


Fm                                                     Cm

The whale's tail came up and caught her


Cm                                                                      

All hands to the side, harpooned and fought her


Cm

When she dived down low (huh)

Cm

No line was cut, no whale was freed


Fm                                               Cm

The captain's mind was not of greed


 Cm

She took that ship in tow (huh)

For forty days or even more


Fm                                                       Cm              

The line went slack then tight once more

As far as I've heard, the fight's still on

The line's not cut, and the whale's not gone

The Wellerman makes his regular call

To encourage the captain, crew and all (huh)
