BOOTHBAY WHALE chrom

Folk song from Maine

Key: D

-6* 7  -7  -7  -6*  -5  -7   -7  -6* -6*

It was way up north in Booth-bay har-bor

 -6*  -6* -7  -7   7   -6*  6

Where the wa-ter’s al-ways cold

 6   5*  5*  6   -7 -7  8*  8* -8

The fish-er folk are a clev-er lot

-7  7 7  -6*  6    -5 

Or so I have been told

-3   -5 -5  -5  -6*  -7    -9

Blow hi for his big black-head

 8*  -8  -8  -8  -9   -8    -7

Blow low for his big black tail

-7   -7   -7  -6* -7   -8 -8 -7  -7   -6*

Now step right up and take a lit-tle swig

-6*  -6*    6    7  7  -6*   6   -5

And you’ll soon see a Booth-bay whale.
