We were / bound home in Oct - / ober,
A DFrom the / shores of Labra - / dor,
G ATrying to / head a strong Nor?- / easter and
snow / too,
DBut the / wind swept down up- / on us, and
A DThe / day was dark as / night,
Just be - / fore we made,
A DThe / land at Bacca - / lieu,
D
Now we / tried to clear the / island,
A DAs we / brought her further / south,
But the / wind from up,
A DThe / Nor?east stronger / blew,
DTill our lookout soon he / shouted, and
There lay dead a - / head,
GThough a / snow squall,
A DLoomed the / Rocks at Bacca - / lieu
D
But it was / hard down by the / tiller,
As we / struggled with the / sheets,
G A DTryin? our / best ?to haul ?em / in a foot or / two,
DTill our / decks so sharply / tilted,
We could / barely keep our / feet,
GAs we / struggled,
A DOn the / Rocks at Bacca - / lieu.
D
Now the / combers beat her / under, and
I / thought she?d never / rise, and
G A DHer / main boom, it was / bending nigh in / two,
DWith her / lee rails two foot / under,
Three / hands upon the / wheel,
GSure we / hauled her,
A DFrom the / Rocks at Bacca - / lieu.

To / leeward was the / island,
A DTo / leeward was the / shore, and
GThat / blinding sleet could,
Cut you through and / through,
DBut our / hearts were beating / gladly,
A DFor no / longer could we / gaze,
Down to / leeward,
A DAt the / Rocks of Bacca - / lieu,
GDown to / leeward,
At the / Rocks of Bacca - / lieu,
