Verse 1
Dm
D
Well, back when this earth was
C
D
a silver blue jewel
G
And back when your grandfather
C
D
's fathers were young
Abdim
Men of these shores made
D
and gave of their lives
E
A
Pulling up fish from the sea
D
While down in the
African slavery trade
C
Stealing young men to cut sugarcane
New
Bedford and codfish for
Maine
Dm
They were building a
C
Dm
wall that will always
D
remain
Oh, the crown and the cross,
the musket and the chain,
The white man's religion,
the family name,
Two hundred years later, and
who is to blame?
The captain or the cargo,
C
Dm
or the juice of the sugarcane?
D
Oh, the
Dore man,
C
D
he knows when the riptides will run
C
D
He sets out his net and he waits in the sun
Bm
D
He thinks of his fam
A
D
ily and drinks of his
rum
E
A
And he waits for the codfish to come
D
It's the same goddamn
G
ocean that keeps you alive
D
It can swallow you up, it can let you survive
It can heal you and steal you
and take you away
Bb
D
Like a note in a bottle with nothing to say
Dm
D
Now back when this earth was
C
D
a silver blue jewel
G
And back when your grandfather
C
D
's fathers were young
Bm
Abdim
Men of these shores
D
made and gave of their lives
A
G
F
Pulling up fish from the sea.
