D A Bm D Bm D A
The boat rides south of Ailsa Craig in the waning of the light
Bm A D G Bm A
There's thirty men in Lendalfit to make our burden light
D A Bm D Bm D A
And there's thirty horse in Hazleholm with the halters on their heads
Bm A D G Bm A D
All set this night up on your life if wind and water speed
Bm D Bm D
Smugglers drink of the frenchmens wine and the darkest night is the smugglers
A
Lime
G D Bm
Away we ran from the excise man
D G
It's a smugglers life for me
Bm A D
It's a smugglers life for me
D A Bm D A
Oh lass you have a cozy bed, and cattle you have ten
Bm A D G Bm D A
Can you not live a lawful life and live with lawful men?
D A Bm D A
But must I use old homely goods while there's foreign gear so fine?
G A Bm D G A D
Must I drink at the waterside and France so full of wine
Bm D Bm D
Smugglers drink of the frenchmens wine and the darkest night is the smugglers
A

D G
It's a smugglers life for me
Bm A D
It's a smugglers life for me
D A Bm D A
Though well I like to see you Kate, with a baby on your knee
Bm A D G Bm D A
My heart is now with gallant crew that plough through the angry sea
D A Bm D A
The hitter gale, the tightest sail, and the sheltered bay or goal
G A Bm D G A
It's the wayward life, it's the smugglers strife, it's the joy of the smugglers
D

It's a smugglers life for me
D A Bm D A
And when at last the dawn comes up and the cargo safely stored
Bm A D G Bm D A
Like sinless saints to church we'll go. God's mercy to afford
D A Bm D A
And It's champagne fine for communion wine and the parson drinks it too
G A Bm D Bm A D
With a sly wink prays "forgive these men, for they know not what they do"
Bm D Bm D
Smugglers, drink of the frenchmens wine and the darkest night is the smugglers
