G                   D
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
               Bm              A        G
And the owners say that she'd had her day
          Em                    A
And sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
           D           A    G
So heave away for the final trawl
      G                     D
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
              Bm           A        G
It's an easy pull, for the catch is small
         Em                     A
And sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
               D               A      G
Then stow your gear, lads, and batten down
      G                     D
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
                  Bm               A        G
And I'll take the wheel, lads, and turn her 'round
         Em                     A
And sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
                   D               A       G
And we'll join the Venture and the Morning Star
     G                     D
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
                Bm    A           G
Riding high and empty towards the bar
         Em                     A
And sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
               D                A       G
Now I'd rather beach her on the Skerry Rock
     G                     D
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
                Bm             A         G
Than to see her torched in the breaker's dock
         Em                     A
And sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
          D            A       G
And when I die you can stow me down
     G                     D
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
             Bm              A        G
In her rusty hold, where the breakers sound
         Em                     A
And sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
                  D        A        G
Then I'd make the haven of Fiddlers Green
     G                     D
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
                  Bm           A         G
Where the grub is good and the bunks are clean
         Em                     A
And sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
                  D         A       G
For I've fished a lifetime, boy and man
      G                    D
Sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
              Bm             A       G
And the final trawl scarcely makes a cran
         Em                     A
And sing “Haul away”, my laddie O
