Thread Name: Lyr/Chords: Tow Rope Girls (C Fox Smith)
Subject: Chords Add: TOW ROPE GIRLS (C Fox Smith)
Skippy I got the song from William and Felicia and get away with three chords on the mandolin- I do it in D so its only D, G and A.
   D               
A ship in the tropics just rolling along
      G            D          G               A
With every stitch drawing the trades blowing strong
      D
The whitecaps around her breaking in spray
    G                   D          A
For those girls have got hold of our tow rope today
         D
And its haul away girls,steady and true
G         D         G         A
Polly and Dolly and Sally and Sue
D
Mothers and sisters and sweethearts and all
       G         D         A                   D
So its haul away haul away haul away haul away girls
