Weather And Water Uke tab by The Greencards

Am                                               F
Well we set off for Stephenshelf, sailin' out to sea
                       C                           G
My brand new wife, my lover, blowin' kisses out to me
  Am                                             F
I couldn't make no livin' on the mainland layin' tile
                        C                      G    Em G
So I thought I'd try my hand at fishin' for a while.

Am                                                    F
Well we were pullin' full nets, the yeild it sure was high
                        C                         G
Those silver skins were shinin', made everybody smile.
    Am                                           F
My heart was growin' heavy the first time out to sea.
                         C                           G
She didn't move like the mainland, brought me to my knees,
         Em
to my knees.


Am      F                G               Am    G
Now I'm out here, in the weather and the water
F        G           Am
Callin' mercy to the sea
Am                                             F
Well I'd rather be a poor boy with a beautiful wife
                     C                      G             Em         Am
Than out here in the weather and the water tonight, I'll surely die tonight

Am                                                f
Well I hear 'em tell my story, I hear 'em late at night
                  C                            G
Old fishermen and deckhands unpitied by their luck
Am                                               F
I'm stuck out on the ocean, I'm tied down to the sea
                    C                                        G
The Weather and the water, it's just the two and me, two and me


Am      F                G               Am    G
Now I'm out here, in the weather and the water
F        G           Am
Callin' mercy to the sea
Am                                             F
Well I'd rather be a poor boy with a beautiful wife
                     C                      G             Em         Am
Than out here in the weather and the water tonight, I'll surely die tonight

Am      F                G               Am    G
Now I'm out here, in the weather and the water
F        G           Am
Callin' mercy to the sea
Am                                             F
Well I'd rather be a poor boy with a beautiful wife
                     C                      G             Em         Am
Than out here in the weather and the water tonight, I'll surely die tonight
