Am           Em             Dm     Em      Am
When I was a little boy, or so my mother told me,
Am        Em          Dm   Em    Am
Way, Haul away, we'll haul away, Joe


[Chorus]
Am        Em          Dm   Em    Am
Way, Haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
Am        Em          Dm   Em    Am
Way, Haul away, we'll haul away, Joe


[Verse 2]
   Am               Em               Dm              Am
We loaded for, Were homeward bound, took it free and easy,
        Am          Em              Dm         Em        Am
setting sail to new found lands, the wind was high and breezy,
   Am                Em               Dm             Am
We overcome and rose above, the storm that we were faceing
  Am      Em         Dm       Em        Am
Finaly ariving home together warm and safely,


[Chorus]
Am        Em          Dm   Em    Am
Way, Haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
Am        Em          Dm   Em    Am
Way, Haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
Am        Em          Dm   Em    Am
Way, Haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
Am        Em          Dm   Em    Am
Way, Haul away, we'll haul away, Joe


[Bridge]
Am      Em  Am      Em
We sail on, we sail on,
Am             Em
With the music playing freely,
    Dm                Em
Our spirits light and gay,
Am      Em   Am
We sail on today,


[Chorus]
Am        Em          Dm   Em    Am
Way, Haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
Am        Em          Dm   Em    Am
Way, Haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
Am        Em          Dm   Em    Am
Way, Haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
Am        Em          Dm   Em    Am
Way, Haul away, we'll haul away, Joe


[Outro]
    Am            Em                  Dm        Em       Am
Now up aloft this yard must go, we'll pull her free and easy.
