The Trawlerman's Song Mark Knopfler
Capo 3. [Intro] Am
Am D G
We're taking on water Diesel and stores Laying up awhile
C Am G
Before I'm back on board They're patching her up To go fishing again
Am D G
They're welding her rudder Scrubbing her keel Scars on her belly
C Am B
Need time to heal In the dock With the trawlermen
Am D G
I know all the people There's nobody new Soon we'll be leaving
C Am D G
With the same old crew On the green water The tumbling sea
Am D G
They ain't running Like the good old days Time's just slipping
C Am B
Down the old slipways In the dock So dear to me
[Chorus]
Am D G Em G Em
Dark is the night I need a guiding light To keep me from foundering
D
On the rocks
Am D G Em G D
My only prayer Is just to see you there At the end Of my wandering
G
Back in the dock
[Instrumental] C Am D Bm Fmaj7 Em B F Em
Am D G
I could use a layoff Getting my strength back But there's a loan to pay off
C Am D
And a few skipjack So it's a turnaround Back in the southerly wind
D Am D
Back in the southerly wind Pirates coming in To steal our gold
G C Am
You can count yourself lucky With a profit in the hold In the dock
B
When we come in
[Chorus]
Am D G Em G Em
Dark is the night I need a guiding light To keep me from foundering
D
On the rocks
Am D G Em G D
My only prayer Is just to see you there At the end Of my wandering
G
Back in the dock
