          / G                                              / F
From / push through across to Bois / Island.    (pronounced BWAS)

They / lift their flukes out, and

They / wave to a town that is / dyin'.
              / F                                           / F

Hauling a - way, / Hauling a - way!
                   / F                                         /F

                   / G                                       / F
Where the / whales make free in the / harbour.

On their / way to the hills of Al - / berta.
         / F                              / F
With / lop-side grins, they / waggle their chins, and
         / D                                           / G
They / brag of the wage they'll be / earnin'.

Get the / tool out,

Haul it a - way, / Haul it a - way!
              / F                                        / F
But just / two years ago, you could / hear the same shout,
                  / G                                        / F
Where the / whales make free in the / harbour.

Free in the / Harbour; un - / troubled by comings and / goings of men,
         / F                                         / F
Who / once did pursue them as / oil from the sea,

Hauling a - way, / Hauling a - way!

               / G                                        / F
If there's / doubts, it's best they ig - / nore them.
       / F                                     / F
Nor / think on the bones, the / crosses and stones,
              / D                                             / G
