Cold February and all is not well
There's few will sleep easy this night
Am                         G
Down on the dockside, grim silent men standing
Bm        Am          Em
Under the pale yellow light
        Em         Bm         Em               Bm
There's scarcely a murmur and laughter there's none
   Em                 Bm       Em
Of whispering there's barely a sound
          Am                      G
For their thoughts are away, down there in the bay
           Em            Bm             Em
Where it's said that the Lairdsfield is down 

Gm               F
Bleak February a cruel bitter wind
Eb                       Dm7
Stirs up the black briny foam
    Gm                  F
Out there on the sea is no place to be
    Eb            Dm7          Gm
Far better by the fireside and warm
    Gm          Dm7        Gm        Am
But not for the sailor the soft easy chair
     Gm        Dm          Gm
He's out there earning his bread
    Cm                                Bb
But tonight there are ten who'll work never again
Gm       Dm               Gm
Counted among the drowned dead

Dm              C
Dark February a few flakes of snow
      Bb                      Am7     A
Drift over bowed heads on the stray
       Dm                   C
By the breakwater side and along by the Gare
     Bb           Am               Dm
They wait for the first streaks of day
    Gm       Dm             Gm       Am
And over the sand-dunes and over the bar
      Gm          Dm           Gm
See a few feet of keel nothing more
     Dm                    C
Held fast in the sand with all of her hands
Bb         A              Dm
Barely two miles from the shore

Em               D
Sad February and all is not well
        C                        G
There's few will sleep easy this night
Am                         B7
Down at the dockside, grim silent men standing
C         Am          Em
Under the pale yellow light
    Em            Bm
For down there at Teesmouth
    Em             Am
The Lairdsfield is drowned
    Em             Bm         Em
And with her every man of her crew
Am                         G
Ten men who'll not see the springtime again
    Em          Bm          Em
Nor yet see the cold winter through
