Now me ^DDad was a fisherman ^Gbold And he ^Clived till he grew ^Dold 'Cause he'd ^Copen the pane and ^Gpop out the ^Emflame To ^Dsee how the winds do ^Gblow" ^D

Now me ^GDad he ^Dsays to ^Gme "If you're ^Cever going to go to ^Dsea Do you ^Copen the pane and ^Gpop out the ^Emflame To ^Dsee how the winds do ^Gblow" ^{D G D}
