capo: 3
Intro Am
Am
We're taking on water
Diesel and stores
GLaying up awhile
CBefore I'm back on board
They're patching her up
` D
To go fishing again
GFishing again
They're welding her rudder
DScrubbing her keel
GScars on her belly
Need time to heal
AmIn the dock
BWith the trawlermen
Am
I know all the people
There's nobody new
GSoon we'll be leaving
CWith the same old crew
On the green water
D GThe tumbling sea
Am
They ain't running
DLike the good old days
Time's just slipping
CDown the old slipways
AmIn the dock
So dear to me
Dark is the night
EmI need a guiding light
GTo keep me
From foundering
DOn the rocks
Am D GMy only prayer
Is just to see you there
GAt the end
DOf my wandering
Back in the dock
I could use a layoff
DGetting my strength back
GBut there's a loan to pay off
And a few skipjack
AmSo it's a turnaround
DBack in the southerly wind
Southerly wind
Pirates coming in
DTo steal our gold
GYou can count yourself lucky
With a profit in the hold
AmIn the dock
BWhen we come in
Am D G
Dark is the night
I need a guiding light
GTo keep me
EmFrom foundering
On the rocks
Am D GMy only prayer
EmIs just to see you there
At the end
DOf my wandering
G G7Back in the dock
