"Fisherman"


         G                               D7
Between the darkness and the light. As the stars fade out of sight

Dm7/g                                  G
I can hear his shiny boots fall on the sand

G                                   D7
With a basket at his side. And the morning full of pride

Dm7/g                                      G
You can see him cast his line with skillful hands


G        Dm7/g     C                    G 
Hey hey, fisherman. Wish you luck that's all I can

G        Dm7/g      C                   G 
Hey hey, fisherman. Forget the world if that's your plan


G                                   D7
As the morning turns to noon. He's content to sit and croon

Dm7/g                                     G
And he lights his twisted pipe and settles down

G                            D7
Onward goes the time - As he tries new baited line

      Dm7/g                         G
So he digs another worm up from the ground

G        Dm7/G       C                    G 
Hey hey, fisherman - Wish you luck that's all I can

G        Dm7/g      C                   G 
Hey hey, fisherman - Forget the world if that's your plan


G                                                D7
T'ween the nightness and the light - The line is taut, he has a bite

Dm7/g                                    G
And he hauls the beauty in with skillful pride

G                                          D7
And his patient mind is blown.'Cause the fish is overgrown

Dm7/g                                G
It was really worth a day for such a prize

G        Dm7/g       C     G 
Hey hey, fisherman
