Fishermans Blues - The Waterboys

            [Intro]
        G     F     Am     C
        G     F     Am     C
        
        [Verse 1]
        G                       F
        I wish I was a fisherman, tumbling on the seas
        Am                               C
        Far away from dry land, and it's bitter memories
        G                               F
        Casting out my sweet line, with abandonment and love
        Am                                      C
        No ceiling bearing down on me, save the starry sky 
        above
    
        [Chorus]
                        G               F             Am   
        With light in my head, you in my arms, woo woo ooh
        C

        [Verse 2]
        G                              F
        I wish I was the brake man, on a hurtlin' fevered 
        train
                Am                                  C
        Crashing headlong into the heartland, like a cannon 
        in the rain
                G                                F
        With the beating of the sleepers, and the burning of
        the coal
        Am                                  C
        Counting towns flashing by me, in a night that's 
        full of soul
        
        [Chorus]
                        G               F             Am   
        With light in my head, you in my arms, woo woo ooh
        C
        
        [Verse 3]
            G                             F
        Oh I know I will be loosened, from bonds that hold 
        me fast
                Am                              C
        And the chains all hung around me, will fall away at
        last
                    G                            F
        And on that fine and fateful day, I will take thee 
        in my hands
            Am                        C
        I will ride on the train, I will be the fisherman
        
        [Chorus]
            r            G               F             Am   
        With light in my head, you in my arms, woo woo ooh
        C
                    G               F
        Light in my head, you in my arms
                    G               F
        Light in my head, you in my arms
                    G               F
        Light in my head, you in my arms
