The Young Fisherwoman-Charlie Waller & The Country Gentlemen
Transcribed by: GMWNS
Album: 45 Years of Memories
Written by: ?

G
The boats were all set to depart
D
The crews mend the nets for the journey
G C
One last kiss from sweethearts and wives
D G
Who were left standing there by the sea.

G
One young wife with tears in her eyes
D
Who had only a short time been wed
G C
But with others she waited re turn
D G
Of her husband the fisherman Ned.

G
She watched the small boats where they sailed
D
Just a spec on the distant ho rizon
G C
Then she turned her weary foot home
D G
For she knew that the night would soon come.

G C G D
How empty the village would be
G D
How lonely the fisherman's wife
G C
For this was Ned's first trip to sea
D G
Since she'd moved to the village his wife.

D G
Brief inst break? ?

G
Some days now have passed since they've gone
D
Was time to return to the harbor
G C
The women and children were there
D G
With laughter and hearts all a stir.

G
And soon there were cries of delight
D
From the lips of the ones who were gathered
G C
A pointed white sail had been seen
D G
They were welcomed and hailed as they neared.

G
And then came a sign of despair
D
For the sight of the boats they had yearned
G C
They all knew that fifteen had left
D G
But only fourteen had re turned.

G C G D
There Grace so torn could not see
G D
Was Ned's boat that could not be found
G C
The others trekked back to their homes
D G
While Grace knelt there on the ground.

D G
Brief inst break? ?

G
The story was told of the wind
D
And the storm how the one boat was swept
G C
How the men had been lost in the night
D G
Then the whole village silently wept.

C G D
The village still tells how for years
G D
The young fisherwoman and bride
G C
Had watched for a boat to come in
D G
Each day by the lonely sea side.
