Fisherman's Blues Lyrics And Chords by The Waterboys

The ukulele chords are included

[G]I wish I was a fisherman
[F]tumblin' on the seas
[Am]far away from dry land
and it's[C] bitter memories
[G]castin' out my sweet line
with a[F]bandonment and love
[Am]no ceiling bearin' down on me
save the[C] starry sky above

[C]with light in my[G] head
with[F] you in my[Am] arms... [C]

i wish i was the brakeman
on a hurtlin' fevered train
crashin' head long into the heartland
like a cannon in the rain
with the feelin' of the sleepers
and the burnin' of the coal
countin' the towns flashin' by
and a night that's full of soul
with light in my head
with you in my arms...
 
[G]And I know I will be loosened
[F]from the bonds that hold me fast
[Am]and the chains all around me
will[C] fall away at last
and[G] on that grand and fateful day
I will[F] take thee in my hand
I[Am] will ride on a train
I will[C] be the fisherman.
