Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
"The Old Polina" (Tra/Arr.GBS)
From "The Hard And the Easy"(2005)
Use a capo on the 1st fret (sounding key Eb Major)
D Em
There's a noble fleet O' whalers,sailin' from Dundee,
A G A D
Manned by British sailors to take them o'er the Sea
D Em
On A Western ocean passage we started on the trip,
A G D A D
we flew along just like a song on our gallant whaling ship
twas the second sunday morning,just after leavin' port,
we met a heavy sou'west gale that washed away our boat
it washed away our quarterdeck,our stanchions just as well,
an so we sent the whole shebang ah-floatin' in the gale
Chorus:
D Em
For the wind was on her quarter,the engine's working free,
A G A D
there's not another whaler that sails the Arctic Sea,
D Em
cant beat the Old Polina,ye need not try me sons,
A G D A D
we challenged all both great and small from Dundee to St Johns!
Art Jackman set his Canvas,Fairweather got up steam,
but Captain Guy the daring B'y came plungin' through the stream
and Mullins in "The Husky" tried to beat the bloody lot,
but to beat the Old Polina,boys,was something he could not.
CHORUS
There's the noble "Terra Nova",a model without doubt,
the "Arctic" and "Aurora" they talk so much about.
Art Jackman's model mailboat,the terror of the sea,
tried to beat the Old Polina,on a passage from Dundee.
CHORUS
Now we're back in old St Johns where rum is very cheap,
we'll drink a health to Captain Guy who brought us o'er the deep
A health to all our sweethearts,and to our wives so fair,
not another ship could make the trip,"The Polina!"I declare
CHORUS X2,first A Capella
the first verse is actually sung with just a bodhran,with
the backing coming in for the second verse. the chords
given are the ones starting there (And repeat for the entire
song, including the chorus.
