Вступление
[Chorus]
G D G Em
Oh a mer-ry day, the Bar-a-cout-ta made port!
Em G Am C
Our Hen-ri-et-ta sail-ors have come back home!
[Verse]
Em Am Em Am
When they left A-quil-a In the West-ern In-dies
Em Am D
Was a storm a-brew-ing, but no one knew
G D
So they sailed, with full sheets fly-ing,
G D
For two days that schoon-er flew!
Em Am Em Am
Then the wind it turn-ed to a bad Nor-west-er
Em Am D
How it whipp’d a-round them now as it blew
G C D
Cap-tain Ham-met said “Reef the fore sails”
Em D
but once reef’d the bolt rope blew.
Em Am Em Am
Now the Hen-ri-et-a ran be-fore a GALE wind
Em Am D
With no sail to steer by, to keep her true
G C D
Capt-ain Ham-met said “Rig a storm sail”
G D
but in minutes that went too.
[Chorus]
G D G Em
Oh a mer-ry day, the Bar-a-cout-ta made port!
Em G Am C
Our Hen-ri-et-ta sail-ors have come back home!
[Verse]
Em Am Em Am
Now the Hen-ri-et-ta was in dire trou-ble
Em Am D
bal-ance reef’d her main sail, but then it blew
G D
And the Sea washed Hen-ri-et-ta
G D
Clear’d the deck of all she knew
Em Am Em Am
How our brave boys tri-ed to just keep her point-ed
Em Am D
Then the rud-der gave way, to their des-pair
G C D
Cap-tain Ham-met said “Chop the bulkhead”
Em D
throw the car-go to the sea
Em Am Em Am
Now the Hen-ri-et-a was so close to sink-ing
Em Am D
But our brave young sail-ors kept to their work
G C D
Capt-ain Ham-met said “Light a fire”
G D
“Sig-nal ships if they be true”
[Chorus]
G D G Em
Oh a mer-ry day, the Bar-a-cout-ta made port!
Em G Am C
Our Hen-ri-et-ta sail-ors have come back home!
[Verse]
Em Am Em Am
Cap-tain Hub-bard sail-ing the good Bar-ra-cout-ta
Em Am D
caught sight of a sig-nal on his port bow
G D
His ship trained in at sea res-cue
G D
and they’d earned some medals too
Em Am Em Am
Who will board that ves-sel in this bit-ter st-orm?
Em Am D
Cap-tain Hub-bard ask-ed his no-ble crew
G C D
“Let me go!” said ever-ry man there;
Em D
he chose four to make the trip
Em Am Em Am
Now poor Hen-ri-et-a tak-ing wa-ter free-ly
Em Am D
Won-der-ed if they’d l-ive ‘til far day-break
G C D
But just then, the Hea-vens op-ened,
G D
And the moon shown bright as day
[Chorus]
G D G Em
Oh a mer-ry day, the Bar-a-cout-ta made port!
Em G Am C
Our Hen-ri-et-ta sail-ors have come back home!
[Verse]
Em Am Em Am
It took them two ho-urs with that wind a blow-ing
Em Am D
to save all our se-ven, our schoon-er’s crew
G D
as they sail-ed in Bar-a-cout-ta
G D
‘Et-ta slipped be-neath the waves.
Em Am Em Am
Oh our po-or schoon-er, Po-or Hein-ri-et-a
Em Am D
But she served her cap-tain and saved her crew
G C D
Cap-tain Ham-met said “let’s go home, boys!”
Em D
“We did all a man can do!”
Em Am Em Am
Now poor Hen-ri-et-a lies down on the bot-tom
Em Am D
But our sail-ors are home, ‘til their next ship
G C D
So let’s hoist mugs to Hen-ri-et-ta
G D
And to Bar-a-cout-a too!
[Chorus]
G D G Em
Oh a mer-ry day, the Bar-a-cout-ta made port!
Em G Am C
Our Hen-ri-et-ta sail-ors have come back home!
