Waterboys - Fishermans blues

^GI wish I was a fisherman, ^Ftumbling on the seas ^Am Far away from dry land, and it's ^Cbitter memories ^G Casting out my sweet light with a^Fbandonment and love ^Am No ceiling bearing down on me, save the s^Ctarry sky above

With light in my ^Ghead, you in my ^Farms, ^Amwoo Solo: G F Am C

I ^Gwish I was the brake man, on a ^Fhurtlin’ fevered train Crashing ^Amheadlong into the heartland, like a ^Ccannon in the rain With the ^Gbeating of the sleepers, and the ^Fburning of the coal ^AmCounting the towns flashing by, in a ^Cnight that's full of soul

With light in my ^Ghead, you in my ^Farms, ^Amwoo Solo: G F Am C G F Am C

Oh I k^Gnow I will be loosened, from ^Fbonds that hold me fast And the ^Amchains all hung around me, ^C will fall away at last And on that f^Gine and fateful day, I will ^Ftake thee in my hand I will ^Amride on the train, and I will ^Cbe the fisherman

With light in my ^Ghead, ^Fyou in my arms, ^Amwoo hoo hoo ^C Solo: G F Am C G F Am C

Light in my ^Ghead, you in my ^Farms, Light in my ^Amhead, ^Cyou-u-u Light in my ^Ghead, you in my ^Farms, Light in my ^Amhead, ^Cyou-u-u
