Subject: RE: Chords Req: The Bonny Ship The Diamond
Here's the way I sing it, nice easy chords:

     Am           G
  The Diamond is a ship me lads,
         Am                  G
  For the Davis Straits she's bound
         Am             G
  And the Quay it is all garnished
      D      G       Am
  With bonnie lassies round.
  
  ... 
  Chorus:
  Am            G      Am
  And it's cheer up, me lads
                 G     Am
  Let your hearts never fail,
                         G
  For the bonnie ship The Diamond
        D       G       Am
  Goes a-fishing for the whale!
