Am                               D 
We're taking on water, diesel and stores  
G                           C 
Laying up awhile before I'm back on board  
Am 
They're patching her up  
               D              G 
To go fishing again, fishing again 
Am                            D                    
They're welding her rudder scrubbing her keel  
G                       C 
Scars on her belly need time to heal  
       Am 
In the dock  
             B 
With the trawlermen  
   Am                          D 
I know all the people, there's nobody new  
G                               C 
Soon we'll be leaving with the same old crew  
        Am                       D        G  
On the green water the tumbling sea  
 Am                          D 
They ain't running like the good old days  
G                             C 
Time's just slipping Down the old slipways  
        Am          B 
In the dock so dear to me  
 
          Am        D     G        Em      
Dark is the night, I need a guiding light  
        G           Em 
To keep me from foundering  
          D 
On the rocks  
  Am    D      G          Em      
My only prayer is just to see you there  
       G            D 
At the end of my wandering  
            G            G7 
Back in the dock     {Instrumental bridge} C  Am D Bm F Em B B7 Em  
 
  Am                                D 
I could use a layoff, getting my strength back  
        G                            C 
But there's a loan to pay off  and a few skipjack  
           Am 
So it's a turnaround  
                     D      G 
Back in the southerly wind  
 Am                         D 
Pirates coming in to steal our gold  
     G                               C 
You can count yourself lucky with a profit in the hold  
       Am            B 
In the dock when we come in  
 
   Am        D     G        Em      
Dark is the night, I need a guiding light  
        G           Em 
To keep me from foundering  
          D 
On the rocks  
  Am    D      G          Em      
My only prayer is just to see you there  
       G            D 
At the end of my wandering  
            G            G7 
Back in the dock
