Am F G [Verse 1]
C F We just lost sight of the Queensport light
C F Round the bay before us
Am F And the wind has blown some cold today
G With just a wee touch of snow.
C F Along the shore near Lazyhead
C F Hard abeam Half Island
Am F Tonight we'll let the anchor go
C Down in Fogarty's Cove. [Verse 2]
C F My Sally's like the raven's wing
C F Her hair is like her mother's
Am F With hands that make quick work of a chore
G And eyes like the top of a stove
C F Come supper time she'll walk the beach
C F Wrapped in my old duffle
Am F With her eyes upon the masthead reach
C Down in Fogarty's Cove.

[Chorus]
Am G She will walk the sandy shore so plain
Dm Em Watch the combers roll in
F Am 'Til I come to Wild Rose Chance again
G C Down in Fogarty's Cove
Am G She will walk the sandy shore so plain
Dm Em Watch the combers roll in
F Am 'Til I come to Wild Rose Chance again
G C Down in Fogarty's Cove [Instrumental]

Am F C [Verse 3]
C F She cries when I'm away to sea
C F Nags me when I'm with her
Am F She'd rather I'd a government job
G Or maybe go on the dole
C F But I love her wave as I put about
C F And nose into the channel
Am F My Sally keeps a supper and a bed for me
C Down in Fogarty's Cove. [Chorus]
