[Verse]
G Dm
We're running down a stormy sea
C Dm
And rolling through the thunder
G Dm C Dm G
'Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
Dm
It's every man aloft my boys
C Dm
Or we'll be driven under
G Dm C Dm G
'Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
[Chorus]
Dm
'Way, haul away
C Dm
We're bound for better weather
G Dm C Dm G
'Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
[Verse]
Dm
For seven days and seven nights
C Dm
We've laboured to exhaustion
G Dm C Dm G
'Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
Dm
But now the breeze is from the East
C Dm
We'll come about for Boston
G Dm C Dm G
'Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
[Chorus]
Dm
'Way, haul away
C Dm
We're bound for better weather

'Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe

East wind bring us home
[Verse]
G Dm
The ragged heavens open up
C Dm
We sound the jubilation
G Dm C Dm G
'Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
Dm
The setting sun's a beacon, boys
C Dm
A sign of our salvation
G Dm C Dm G
'Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
[Chorus]
Dm
'Way, haul away
C Dm
We're bound for better weather
G Dm C Dm G
'Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe

East wind bring us home
