Great Big Sea - French Shore
DWhen I was a young man, Ajust barely 1D4
GCraving adventure aDndDsus2 lore D
GI boarded a clipper me dAad was aBm skipper
Emand sailed it along the AFrench shore Dya,
Em7we sailed all aloAng the FrenDchDsus2 shoreD
What beautiful vessels were sailing back then
All bound for the north Labrador
And So for that reason they came here that season
To sail all along the French shore ya
To sail all along the French shore
On each ship a maiden was hired to cook
A beautiful girl to adore so young and cavorting
All ready for courting while sailing along the French shore ya,
While sailing along the French shore
Being too young for courting I soon did decide
To spy on the lovers on shore I spied on a couple
So loving and supple, while sailing along the French shore ya,
While sailing along the French shore
DTheir actions peculiar aAppeared to me thDen
Gbut now they're not funny no mDorDe
Gthey were huggin and kissinA' oh what ive been missBmin,
Emwhile sailing alongA the French shore yDa,
Em7 A Bm G(or D)
Em7while sailingA along, sailDinDsus2g alonDg, while sailing along the French shore
That couple has children now married I know
You see they're not young anymore
Yet still they don't know how I witnessed the show
That they played all along the French shore ya,
That they played all along the French shore
DAnd that ends the sAtory of my bonnieD days
GOh, that I could live them oncDe Dsus2more D
G (Strum once)
and this much I know I'd produce my own show,
and I'd sEmtage it along the French Ashore yDa,
Em A Bm G (or D)
While sailin along, sailin along,
Em7 A Bm G (or D)
While sailin along, sailing along,
Em7 (or Em) A D
While sailin along the French shore
