The Boats Of Peters River
Tono: Original
[Intro]
D A D
[Verse]
G D
Not a boat in Peter's River or in all Saint Mary's Bay
G D E7 A
The fishermen in rubber boots are staying home today
D A D G A
Hanging out the laundry or hang out in the store
G D A D
And the Little Boats of Newfoundland are idle on the shore
G D A D
The men of Peter's River are just barely getting by
G D A D A D
And the boats of Peter's River have their bottoms to the sky
[Verse]
G D
The wives of Peter's River are taking up the slack
G D E7 A
The fisheries have ended, and it's never coming back
D A D G A
Sell a little knitting, set some broody hens
G D A D
No sooner does a hard day end, another one begins
G D A D
The wives of Peter's River are too strong to sit and cry
G D A D A D
And the boats of Peter's River have their bottoms to the sky
[Verse]
G D
The boys of Peter's River are bright as boys can be
G D E7 A
Their eyes are on the highway instead of on the sea
D A D G A
Where their fathers went before them, is not where they must go
G D A D
And the fate of Peter's River is not for us to know
G D A D
The boys of Peter's River are too young to wonder why
G D A D A D
And the boats of Peter's River have their bottoms to the sky
[Verse]
G D
The storms of Peter's River have pounded us for years
G D E7 A
Crashing in the harbour and smashing up the piers
D A D G A
We've ridden out these storms before by shooting at our boats
G D A D
But we know this storm is different and we cannot stay afloat
G D A D
There's no nets in Peter's River, laying out to dry
G D A D
And the boats of Peter's River have their bottoms to the sky
G D A D
There's no nets in Peter's River, laying out to dry
G D A D
And the boats of Peter's River have their bottoms to the sky
