(capo 1st fret)
 
G                        C        G
a' the week your man's awa'
G                              C             G
and a' the week you bide your lane
G                          C          Am
a' the time you're waiting for
G                             C         G
the minute that he's comin' home
G                             F          G
ye ken whit why he has tae work
G                             F          G
ye ken the hours he has tae keep
G                                   F        C
and yet it's making you angry when
     G          C             Am          G
ye see him just come home tae sleep
 
 
through the months and through the years
 
while you're bringing up the bairns
 
your man's awa' tae here and there
 
followin' the shoals of herring
 
and when he's back there's nets tae mend
 
you've maybe got a score or twa
 
and when they're done he'll rise and say
 
wife it's time i was awa'
 
 
work and wait and dree your weird
 
pin yer faith in herrin' sales
 
and oftimes lie awake at nicht
 
in fear and dread of winter gales
 
but men maun work tae earn their breid
 
and men maun sweat to gain their fee
 
and fishermen will aye gang oot
 
as long as fish swim in the sea
 
 
a' the week your man's awa'
 
and a' the week you bide your lane
 
a' the time you're waiting for
 
the minute that he's comin' home
 
ye ken whit why he has tae work
 
ye ken the hours he has tae keep
 
and yet it's making you angry when
 
ye see him just come home tae sleep
 
 
Sorry but when I submit my tab the chords go to the wrong positions in the song. I hope
get along with it, anyway. The lyrics are written in an Olde English style to make it
and look intresting. So have fun with it. steven
