[ Предположительная тональность: G ] Lyrics and music: Stan Rogers Album: Northwest Passage 1981 [Intro] G C D [Verse 1] G C Well it's blackfish at play in Hermitage Bay D G C D From Pushthrough across to Bois Island G C They broach and they sprout and they lift their flukes out Am D And they wave to a town that is dying Em C Now it's many's the boats that have plied on the foam Am C D Hauling away, hauling away! G G7 C Am But there's many more fellows been leaving their homes D G C D Where the whales make free in the harbour [Verse 2] G C It's at Portage and Main, you'll see them again D G C D On their way to the hills of Alberta G C With lop-sided grins, they waggle their chins Am D And they brag of the wage they'll be earning Em C Then it's, "Quick, pull the string boys, and get the tool out Am C D Haul it away! Haul it away!" G G7 C Am But just two years ago, you could hear the same shout D G Where the whales make free in the harbour [Chorus] Am D Free in the harbour C G The blackfish are sporting again Em C Free in the harbour Am C/B C D Untroubled by comings and goings of men G G7 Who once did pursue them as oil from the sea C A7 Hauling away, hauling away! G Am Now they're Calgary roughnecks from Hermitage Bay D G Where the whales make free in the harbour [Instrumental] G C D [Verse 3] G C Well, it's a living they've found, deep in the ground D G C D And if there's doubts, it's best they ignore them G C Nor think on the bones, the crosses and stones Am D Of their fathers that came there before them Em C In the taverns of Edmonton, fishermen shout Am C D "Haul it away! Haul it away!" G G7 C Am They left three hundred years buried up on the Bay D G Where the whales make free in the harbour [Chorus] Am D Free in the harbour C G The blackfish are sporting again Em C Free in the harbour Am C/B C D Untroubled by comings and goings of men G G7 Who once did pursue them as oil from the sea C A7 Hauling away, hauling away! G Am Now they're Calgary roughnecks from Hermitage Bay D G Where the whales make free in the harbour [Coda] Am D G Free in the harbour... again G C D
