Biografia:
Mike Scott, vocalista, letrista e único membro constante do Waterboys, nasceu em Edimburgo na Escócia, em 1958. Seu primeiro contato com a música foi por intermédio do fanzine Jungleland e também por tocar em várias bandas punks da cidade. Quando terminou o colégio, Scott passou a estudar filosofia e inglês e mudou-se para Londres com sua banda, a Another Pretty Face. Com o fim do grupo Scott cria o Waterboys, em 1981, cujo nome foi retirado de um trecho da letra de The Kids, de Lou Reed.

[Intro]
G F Am C
G F Am C
[1st verse]
G F
I wish I was a fisherman, tumbling on the seas
Am C
Far away from dry land, and it's bitter memories
G F
Casting out my sweet line, with abandonment and love
Am C
No ceiling staring down on me, save the starry sky above
[Chorus]
G F Am C
With light in my head, you in my arms, woo woo ooh
[2nd verse]
G F
I wish I was the brake man, on a hurtlin' fevered train
Am C
Crashing headlong into the heartland, like a cannon in the rain
G F
With the beating of the sleepers, and the burning of the coal
Am C
Counting towns flashing by me, in a night that's full of soul
[Chorus]
G F
Oh I know I will be loosened, from bonds that hold me fast
Am C
And the chains all hung around me, will fall away at last
G F
And on that fine and fateful day, I will take thee in my hands
Am C
I will ride the train, and I will be the fisherman
[Chorus] (x2)
G F Am C
With light in my head, you in my arms, woo woo ooh
