[INTRO]
Dm

[VERSE ONE]
Dm C Dm
A shanty man's life is a wearysome one
C Dm
Though some say it's free from care
A Dm C
It's the swinging of an axe from morning till night
Dm A# Dm
In the forest wild and drear

[VERSE TWO]
Dm C Dm
Transported as we are from a lady so fair
C Dm
To the banks of some lonely stream
A Dm C
Where the wolf, bear and owl give a terrifying howl
Dm A# Dm
And disturb our nightly dreams

[VERSE THREE]
Dm C Dm
Oh sleeping at night in our bunks without cheer
C Dm
While the cold winter winds do blow
A Dm C
But as soon as the morning star does appear
Dm A# Dm
To the wild woods we must go

[VERSE FOUR]
