[Verse]
C#
Bill Hosie built a plane
F#
A# survivor from the Schneider Trophy Race
C#
Seemed like a nice old guy
F#
With his baseball cap and his sun-slit eyes
C#
He took the airframe, motor, and wings
G#/C G# A#m C# F#
And restored all the fabric, the floats and the straps and things
C# D#m7
And the shark on banana skis
G#7 C# F# C# F#
Was heard to roar once more over Cornwall seas
[Verse]
C#
In the 'Twenty-Seven Schneider Race
F#
It was a Supermarine that took first place
C#
The year Bill Hosie was born
F#
When there were still tall ships sailin' round Cape Horn
C#
But the S.5 Supermarine
G#/C G# A#m C# F#
Was the fastest Seaplane the world had ever seen
C# D#m7
Nearly three hundred miles-an-hour
G#7 C# F# C# F#
With a Napier inline engine to give her power
[Verse]
C#
And her daughters flew in World War Two
F#
Their pilots were known as the first of the few
C#
When the Battle of Britain raged
F#
The Spitfire blazed across a history page
C#
But Bill Hosie built a dream
G#/C G# A#m C# F#
To haunt the skies with the ghost of a Supermarine
C# D#m7
And she rose on the steppe again
G#7 C# F# C# F#
With the spirit of a Schneider Trophy racing plane
[Verse]
C#
She took to the cool spring air
F#
With Bill Hosie sitting in the pilot's chair
C#
She banked along the Cornwall shore
F#
Her tail broke away and she flew no more
C#
She fell from her flight of grace
G#/C G# A#m C# F#
The year they revived the Schneider Trophy race
C# D#m7
And the Supermarine S.5
G#7 C#
Was the plane that made Bill Hosie feel alive
