[Verse 1]
[D]Ten[A] li[D]ttle fishermen a
[A]-drinkin' sherry [D]wine,
Ten little fishermen a
-drinkin' sherry wine,
One [G]drank a [D]gallon,
and there were only nine,
With the long rods flashing,
the [G]long oars flashing,
[D]Leaning on the gunwale
and a [A]-making for the [D]shore.[A]
[D]Nine little fishermen cutting up the[A] bai[D]t
Nine little fishermen cut[A]ting up the [D]bait
[G]One ate a [D]cutworm and
there were only eight
With the long rod splashing,
[G]long oar splashing
Lean[D]ing on the gunnel
and [A]making for the [D]shore[A]
[D]Six little fishermen glad to [A]be ali[D]ve,
Six little fishermen glad [G]to [A]be [D]alive,
One [G]hooked his trouser [D]bottoms,
woo -hoo, woo -hoo,
And there were only five,
With a long rod splashing,
[G]one oar splashing,
[D]Linin' on the gunner
and a [A]-makin' for the [D]shore.[A]
[D]Five little fishermen fish
[A]in' on the [D]shore
Five little fishermen fishin' [A]on the [D]shore
One [G]walked into the [D]quicksand
And there were only [A]four
With the [D]long rods flashing,
the [G]long oars flashing,
[D]leaning on the gun and mak
[A]ing for the [D]shore.[A][D]
Four little fishermen row[A]ing back to [D]sea.
Four little fishermen row[A]ing back to [D]sea.
[G]One hooked a [D]whale.
Off we go.
And there were only three
with the long rods flashing,
Flashing the [G]long horse, flashing,
[D]leaning on the gun,
I'll land and [A]make it for the [D]show.[A]
[D]One little fisherman com
[A]ing home from [D]sea,
One tired fisherman coming
home [A]from [D]sea,
I'll [G]swear the story's [D]true,
cause that fisherman was me
[D]with the long rods.
Splashing the [G]long horse, splashing,
[D]leaning on the gunnel,
and a [A]-making for the [D]shore.
