DWe_ were Dbound_ home_ D/F#in__ OcDtoberD__ from the Dshores_ of ALa_-braDdor__D

Trying to Ghead_ a Gstrong_ Nor'AeasterA_ and Dsnow__ Dtoo__A__ A

But the Dwind_ swept_ D/F#down upDon us_D

and the Dday_ was_ Adark_ as Dnight_ Djust beGfore_ we Gmade_

the Aland_ Aat Bac_-c| D _ D _| D _ D _alieu___

Now we Dtried_ to D/F#clear_ the Disland_D as we Dbrought her_ Afur_-ther DsouthD_

But the Gwind_ from Gout_ the ANor'east_ Astron_-ger Dblew_D___A A

Till our Dlookout_ D/F#so-on_ he Dshou-ou-ted_D

and Dthere_ lay_ Adead_ aDhead_ Dthough_ a Gsnow_ squall_

GLoomed_ the Arocks_ Aat Bac_-c| D _ D _| D _ D _|alieu____ __

But it was_ Dhard down D/F#by_ the DtillerD_ as we Dstruggled_ Awith_ the Dsheets_

Dtryin' our Gbest_ to Ghaul_ 'em Ain_ a Afoot or_ Dtwo__D A A

Till our Ddecks so_ D/F#sharply Dtil_-Dted_

We could Dbare_-ly_ Akeep_ our Dfeet_ as we Gstruggled_

GOn_ the Arocks_ at ABac_-c| D _ D _| D _ D _|alieu____

Now the Dcombers_ D/F#beat_ her Dunder_D and I Dthought she'd_ Ane_-ver Drise_

DAnd her Gmain_ boomG_ it was_ Abending_ Anigh_ in Dtwo____D A A

With her Dlee_ rails_ D/F#two_ foot DunderD_

DThree hands_ uApon the Dwheel_ DSure_ we_ Ghau_-led_ Gher_

from the Arocks_ Aat Bac-_c| D _ D _| D _ D _|alieu_
