Bluenose 4/4 Stan Rogers
Standard Tuning No Capo Submitted by Ken Lee
Intro: kandvlee@shaw.ca
/ Am / C
Once a - / gain with the tide, she / slips her lines,
/ C / Am
Turns her / head and comes a - / wake,
/ Am / C
Where she / lay so still there at / Privateers Wharf,
/ F / Am
Now she / quickly gathers / way,
/ Am / / C
She will / range far / south of the / harbour mouth, and
/ C / D / /
Re - / joice with every / wave, / /
Am / C / F / /
Who will know the / Bluenose in the / sun.
/ Am / C
Feel her / bow rise free of / Mother sea,
/ C / Am
In a / sunburst cloud of / spray,
/ Am / C
That / stings the cheek, while the / rigging will speak
/ F / Am
Of / sea miles gone a - / way,
/ Am / C
She is / always best under / full press,
/ C / D / /
Hard / over as she'll / lay. / /
Chorus: @2
Am / C / Am / /
Who will know the / Bluenose in the / sun,
/ Am / C
The / proud past queen of the / Grand Banks fleet,
/ C / Am
Port - / rayed on every / dime,
/ Am / D
Knew / hard work in her / time,
/ F / Am
Hard / work in every / line.
/ Am / C
The / rich man's toys o' the / Gloucester boys,
/ C / Am
With their / token bit of / cod,
/ Am / C
They / snapped their spars and / strained to pass
/ C
her / by,
/ F / Am
But she / left them all be - / hind,
/ D
Now her namesake / daughter re - mains,
/ F / Am
To / show what she has / been.
/ C
What every / school boy remembers, and
F / Am
Will not come a - / gain,
/ Am / C
To / think she's the last of the / Grand Bank
schooners,
/ Am / D / /
That / fed so many / men. / /
Chorus: @2
Am / C / F / /
Who will know the / Bluenose in the / sun./ /
Break: Fiddle
/ Am / C
So does she / not take wing like a / living thing,
C / Am
Child of the moving / tide
/ Am / C
See her / pass with grace on the / water's face
/ F / Am
With / clean and quiet / pride
/ Am / C
Our / own tall ship of / great renown,
/ Am / D / /
Still / lifts unto the / sky./ /
Am / C / F /
Who will know the / Bluenose in the / sun? /
Am / C / Am /
Who will know the / Bluenose in the / sun? /
Am / C / Am
Who will know the / Bluenose in the / sun?
/ C / Am
Know the / Bluenose in the / sun, @ 3 ?
