Verse 
                  F        C 
They will take us from the moorings 
                 F        C 
They will tow us down the Bay 
                         G                C 
They will pluck us up to windward when we sail 
                 F         C 
We will hear the keen wind whistle 
                 F        C 
We will feel the sting of spray 
                             G              C 
When we've seen the deep-sea pilot o'er the rail 

Verse 
          F       G         C 
Then it's Johnnie heave and start her 
          F       G        C 
Then it's Johnnie roll and go 
         F          G          C 
When the mates have picked the watches 
                         G     C 
There is little rest for Jack 
                 F        C 
We will sing the good old Chorus 
                  F        C 
That the Homeward Bounders know 
                           G 
For the girls have got the towrope 
            F              C      G   C   G   C F C 
And they're hauling in the slack 

Verse 
                  F           C 
Through the dusty streets and dismal 
                   F      C 
Through the noises of the town 
                           G                   C 
You can hear the West wind humming through the shrouds 
                  F         C 
And we'll see the lightning leaping 
              F       C 
As the tropic suns go down 
                      G              C 
And the dapple of the shadows on the clouds 

Verse 
        F          G      C 
And the salt blood dances in us 
       F       G        C 
To the tune of Homeward Bound 
       F       G     C 
To the call to weary watches 
                        G     C 
To the sheet and to the tack 
                 F       C 
When they bid us man the capstan 
               F        C 
All hands will walk her round 
                           G 
For the girls have got the tow-rope 
            F              C      G   C   G   C F C 
And they're hauling in the slack 

Verse 
                     F      C 
Through the sunshine of the tropics 
                    F      C 
Round the bleak and dreary Horn 
                       G               C 
Half across the sleepy planet lies our way 
                    F      C 
And we'll leave the land behind us 
               F       C 
Like a welcome long outworn 
                        G                   C 
When we see the reeling mastheads swing and sway 

Verse 
            F       G        C 
Through the weather fair and stormy 
            F        G      C 
Through the calm and in the gale 
        F         G       C 
We will heave and haul to help her 
                 G      C 
We will keep her on her track 
                   F        C 
And we'll sing the good old chanties 
                 F      C 
As all hands are making sail 
                           G 
For the girls have got the tow-rope 
            F              C 
And they're hauling in the slack
