Mingulay Boat Song

C/G
Ill ya ho, boys; let her go, boys;
          G7             F
Bring her round, now all together.
C/G
Ill ya ho, boys; let her go boys,
        G7                 C/G
Sailing home, home to Mingulay.


C/G                 G7        C/G
What care we though white the Minch is?
                 G7      C/G    G7
What care we for wind or weather?
        C/G      G7    C/G
Let her go boys! ev'ry inch is
        G7                 C/G
Wearing home, home to Mingulay.

CHORUS:
C/G
Ill ya ho, boys; let her go, boys;
          G7             F
Bring her round, now all together.
C/G
Ill ya ho, boys; let her go boys,
        G7                 C/G
Sailing home, home to Mingulay.


C/G               G7     C/G
Wives are waiting on the bank, or
                G7       C/G   G7
Looking seaward from the heather;
         C/G         G7        C/G
Pull her round boys! and we'll anchor.
                    G7   C/G
Ere the sun sets at Mingulay.

CHORUS:
C/G
Ill ya ho, boys; let her go, boys;
          G7             F
Bring her round, now all together.
C/G
Ill ya ho, boys; let her go boys,
        G7                 C/G
Sailing home, home to Mingulay.
