	  Bluenose 
By David Martin 

Em                            D           Em 
In the town of Lunenburg down Nova Scotia way 
Em                                D 
In nineteen twenty-one on a windy day 
                   Em     B7                Em 
A sailing ship was born, "Bluenose" was her name 
Em                   B7   Em 
You'll never see her kind again 

{Refrain} 
C   D         G               Em 
Bluenose, the ocean knows her name 
C                D                G  B7 
Sailors know how proud a ship was she 
C   D     G              Em 
Bluenose, leaning in the wind 
C            D           Em 
Racing ev'ry wave on the sea 


Em                               D                Em 
Her hull was long and black, her sails were snowy white 
Em                                   D 
She looked just like a young bird in flight 
                  Em         B7                Em 
And from the very first, the Bluenose loved to run 
Em                     B7      Em  
She loved the smell of sea and sun 

{Refrain} 
C   D         G               Em 
Bluenose, the ocean knows her name 
C                D                G  B7 
Sailors know how proud a ship was she 
C   D     G              Em 
Bluenose, leaning in the wind 
C            D           Em 
Racing ev'ry wave on the sea 

Em                             D                  Em 
For twenty-five long years she ruled the Northern sea 
Em                         D 
Riding like a queen on the tide 
            Em       B7              Em 
In the Caribbean one dark and stormy day 
Em             B7       Em  
She ran into a reef and died 

{Refrain} 
C   D         G               Em 
Bluenose, the ocean knows her name 
C                D                G  B7 
Sailors know how proud a ship was she 
C   D     G              Em 
Bluenose, leaning in the wind 
C            D           Em 
Racing ev'ry wave on the sea 

Em                           D           Em 
Now just the other day, down Nova Scotia way 
Em                             D 
In Lunenburg they christened a ship 
                      Em         B7          Em 
Just like the old Bluenose, down to the very name 
Em                    B7   Em  
The Bluenose lives to sail again 

{Refrain} 
C   D         G               Em 
Bluenose, the ocean knows her name 
C                D                G  B7 
Sailors know how proud a ship was she 
C   D     G              Em 
Bluenose, leaning in the wind 
C            D           Em 
Racing ev'ry wave on the sea
