Fishermans Blues chords by The Waterboys (Ver. 2)

Intro:
G    F     Am     C

play it twice

1st verse:

G             F
I wish I was a fisherman, tumbling on the seas
Am                C
Far away from dry land, and it's bitter memories
G                F
Casting you my sweet light with abandonment and love
Am                    C
No ceiling staring down on me, save the starry sky above

Chorus:
         G   F     Am      C
With light in my hair, you in my arms, woo woo ooh


2nd verse:

I wish I was the brake man, on a Hartland diesel train
Crashing headlong into the heartland, like a cannon in the rain
With the beating of the sleepers, and the burning of the coal
Counting towns flashing by me, in a night that's full of soul

Chorus:

G               F
Oh I know I will be loosened, from bonds that hold me tight
Am                   C
And the chains all hung around me will fall away at last
G                    F
And on that fine and fateful day I will take thee in my arms
Am                   C
I will ride the night train, and I will be the fisherman

Repeat chorus
