DO FA
We just lost sight of the Queen's Port light
DO FA
Round the Bay behind us - and the
LAm FA
Wind has blown some cold today
FA SOL
With just a wee touch of snow.
DO FA
Along the shore near Lazyhead
DO FA
Hard a-beem half island
LAm FA
Tonight we'll let the anchor go
SOL DO
Down in Fogarty's Cove.
Chorus
LAm SOL
She will walk the sandy shores so plain
REm DO
Watch the combers roll in
FA LAm
'Til I come to Wild Rose Chance again
SOL DO
Down in Fogarty's Cove
Verse:
My Sal is like a raven's wing
Hair is like her mother's
With hands that make quick work of a chore
And eyes like the top of a stove
Come supper time she'll walk the beach
Wrapped in my old duffle
With her eyes upon the mast head reach
down in Fogarty's cove
She cries when I'm away to sea
Nags me when I'm with her
She'd rather I'd a government job
Or maybe go on the dole
But I love her wave as I put about
And nose into the channel
My Sally keeps a supper and a bed for me
Down in Fogarty's cove.
