A brilliant song from the wonderful 10-piece Fisherman's Friends of Port Isaac in
Cornwall. I'm not sure about a couple of the chords, but this works fine for me.
*Sparse accompaniment*
[CHORUS]
G# C#
Come, all you no hopers,
G# Eb
you jokers and rogues
G# C#
we're on the road to nowhere,
G# Eb
let's find out where it goes
G# Eb C# Eb
It might be a ladder to the stars, who knows
G# C#
Come, all you no hopers,
Eb G#
you jokers and rogues.
*Full accompaniment*
[VERSE 1]
G# C# G# Eb
Leave all your furrows in the fields where they lie
G# C#
Your factories and offices;
G# Eb
kiss them all goodbye
G# Eb C# Eb
Have a little faith in the dream maker in the sky
C# Eb C# Eb
There's glory in believing him
G# C# Eb
and it's all in the beholder's eye.
[CHORUS]
G# C#
Come, all you no hopers,
G# Eb
you jokers and rogues
G# C#
we're on the road to nowhere,
G# Eb
let's find out where it goes
G# Eb C# Eb
It might be a ladder to the stars, who knows
G# C#
Come, all you no hopers,
Eb G#
you jokers and rogues.
[VERSE 2]
G# C# G# Eb
Turn off your engines and slow down your wheels
G# C# G# Eb
Suddenly your master plan loses its appeal
G# Eb C# Eb
Everybody knows that this reality's not real
C# Eb C# Eb G# C# Eb
So raise a glass to all things past and celebrate how good it feels.
[CHORUS]
G# C#
Come, all you no hopers,
G# Eb
you jokers and rogues
G# C#
we're on the road to nowhere,
G# Eb
let's find out where it goes
G# Eb C# Eb
It might be a ladder to the stars, who knows
G# C#
Come, all you no hopers,
Eb G#
you jokers and rogues.
[BRIDGE]
Eb C# G#
Awash on the sea of our own vanity
Eb C# G#
We should rejoice in our individuality
C# Eb C# Eb Eb
Though it's gale force, let's steer a course for sanity
*Sparse accompaniment*
[CHORUS]
G# C#
Come, all you no hopers,
G# Eb
you jokers and rogues
G# C#
we're on the road to nowhere,
G# Eb
let's find out where it goes
G# Eb C# Eb
It might be a ladder to the stars, who knows
G# C#
Come, all you no hopers,
Eb G#
you jokers and rogues.
*Full accompaniment*
[CHORUS]
*slowing to finish on last line*
G# C#
Come, all you no hopers,
G# Eb
you jokers and rogues
G# C#
we're on the road to nowhere,
G# Eb
let's find out where it goes
G# Eb C# Eb
It might be a ladder to the stars, who knows
G# C#
Come, all you no hopers,
Eb G#
you jokers and rogues.
