D We were / bound home in Oct - / ober, A D From the / shores of Labra - / dor, G A Trying to / head a strong Nor?- / easter and D snow / too, D But the / wind swept down up- / on us, and A D The / day was dark as / night, G Just be - / fore we made, A D The / land at Bacca - / lieu,
D Now we / tried to clear the / island, A D As we / brought her further / south, G But the / wind from up, A D The / Nor?east stronger / blew, D Till our lookout soon he / shouted, and A D There lay dead a - / head, G Though a / snow squall, A D Loomed the / Rocks at Bacca - / lieu
D But it was / hard down by the / tiller, A D As we / struggled with the / sheets, G A D Tryin? our / best ?to haul ?em / in a foot or / two, D Till our / decks so sharply / tilted, A D We could / barely keep our / feet, G As we / struggled, A D On the / Rocks at Bacca - / lieu.
