(verse 1) 
Am                             C 
If the waves roll rough as in days before 
          G                Am 
Still we put our boats to sea 
                               C 
The take has been tough, we're counting on more 
   G                Am - C - Am - G - Am 
To make the season pay 
 
 
(verse 2) 
It was back in '83 my brothers and me 
laid our poor father in his grave 
Even though he's dead and gone, his voice lives on 
In the hiss and pull of the waves 

            C         G 
We'll carry on, carry on 
 F                       C              G 
sing these words through all the damage done 
    F                      C           F 
The old salt would say, I my father's son 
      Am          C 
Come hell or high water 
G           Am   
We'll carry on,
 
 
 
(verse 3) 
In smokey gray rooms, beneath bare lightbulbs,  
The accusations fly 
What the hell do they want, they've taken enough 
From this way of life once mine 
 
Chorus and Am-C/B-C - Am-C/B-C - Am-C/B-C-G-Am 
 
Verse4 
It's a merciless scheme, not a fisherman's dream 
The way the tide has turned 
For not long before, by these restless shores 
A man could his living earn
