When she’s load ed down with fish till the (G)wa ter lips the (D)gun wale, not a (Bm)drop she’ll take on (D)board her that would (E)wash a fly a (A)way.

From the (D)fleet she’ll slip out (G)swift ly like a (Em)grey hound (A)from her (D)ken nel, (Bm)and she’ll (A)land who sil ver (Bm)store ters first at (G)ould Kin (A)va ra (D)quay.

The (A)Queen of Con ne (Bm)ma ra (G)is that (D)bound ing (A)barque of (D)mine.

There’s a (D)bound ing (A)barque of (D)mine!
