[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/B G Am C F
And restored all the fabric, the floats and the straps and things
C Dm7
And the shark on banana skis
G7 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/B G Am C F
Was the fastest Seaplane the world had ever seen
C Dm7
Nearly three hundred miles-an-hour
G7 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/B G Am C F
To haunt the skies with the ghost of a Supermarine
C Dm7
And she rose on the steppe again
G7 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/B G Am C F
The year they revived the Schneider Trophy race
C Dm7
And the Supermarine S.5
G7 C
Was the plane that made Bill Hosie feel alive
