Misc Traditional - Old maui

It’s a ^Amdamn tough ^E7life, full of ^Amtoil & ^E7strife, we ^Amwhaler men ^E7under^Amgo. & we ^Amwon’t give a ^E7damn when the ^Amgales are ^E7done,how ^Amhard the ^E7winds did ^Amblow. For we’re ^Chomeward bound from the ^GArctic ground, with a ^Amgood ship taut & ^E7free. & we ^Amwon’t give a ^E7damn when we ^Amdrink our ^E7rum, with the ^Amgirls of ^E7old Mau^Ami.

Rolling ^Cdown to ^Gold Maui, me boys, rolling ^Amdown to old ^E7Maui; We’re ^Amhomeward ^E7bound from the ^AmArctic ^E7ground, rolling ^Amdown to ^E7old Mau^Ami.

Once ^Ammore we ^E7sail with a ^Amnortherly ^E7gale, through the ^Amice & ^E7wind & ^Amrain. Them ^Amcoconut ^E7fronds, them ^Amtropical ^E7shores, we ^Amsoon shall ^E7see ag^Amain. Six ^Chellish months we’ve ^Gpassed away, on the ^Amcold Kamchatka ^E7sea; But ^Amnow we’re ^E7bound from the ^AmArctic ^E7ground, rolling ^Amdown to ^E7old Mau^Ami. Am E7 Am E7 Am E7 Am

Our ^Amwhaling ^E7done, our ^Ammain mast ^E7sprung, & we ^Amain’t got ^E7far to ^Amroam. Our ^Cstuns’ls booms are ^Gcarried away, what ^Amcare we for that ^E7sound; A ^Amliving ^E7gale is ^Amafter ^E7us, thank ^AmGod we’re ^E7homeward ^Ambound.

How ^Amsoft the ^E7breeze through the ^Amisland ^E7trees, now the ^Amice is ^E7far a^Amstern. Them ^Amnative ^E7maids, them ^Amtropical ^E7glades, is a^Amwaiting ^E7our r^Ameturn. Eve^Cn now their big brown ^Geyes look out, hoping ^Amsome fine day to ^E7see: Our ^Ambaggy ^E7sails, running ‘^Amfore the ^E7gales, rolling ^Amdown to ^E7old Mau^Ami.

And ^Amnow we’re ^E7anchored ^Amin the ^E7bay, with the ^AmKanakas ^E7all a^Amround, With ^Amchants & ^E7soft “a^Amloha ^E7ios”, they ^Amgreet us ^E7homeward ^Ambound. And ^Cnow ashore we’ll ^Ghave good fun, we’ll ^Ampaint them beaches ^E7red; A^Amwaken in the ^E7arms of an ^Amisland ^E7maid with a ^Ambig fat ^E7aching ^Amhead!
