[Verse]
F
Bill Hosie built a plane
A#
D survivor from the Schneider Trophy Race
F
Seemed like a nice old guy
A#
With his baseball cap and his sun-slit eyes
F
He took the airframe, motor, and wings
C/E C Dm F A#
And restored all the fabric, the floats and the straps and things
F Gm7
And the shark on banana skis
C7 F A# F A#
Was heard to roar once more over Cornwall seas
[Verse]
F
In the 'Twenty-Seven Schneider Race
A#
It was a Supermarine that took first place
F
The year Bill Hosie was born
A#
When there were still tall ships sailin' round Cape Horn
F
But the S.5 Supermarine
C/E C Dm F A#
Was the fastest Seaplane the world had ever seen
F Gm7
Nearly three hundred miles-an-hour
C7 F A# F A#
With a Napier inline engine to give her power
[Verse]
F
And her daughters flew in World War Two
A#
Their pilots were known as the first of the few
F
When the Battle of Britain raged
A#
The Spitfire blazed across a history page
F
But Bill Hosie built a dream
C/E C Dm F A#
To haunt the skies with the ghost of a Supermarine
F Gm7
And she rose on the steppe again
C7 F A# F A#
With the spirit of a Schneider Trophy racing plane
[Verse]
F
She took to the cool spring air
A#
With Bill Hosie sitting in the pilot's chair
F
She banked along the Cornwall shore
A#
Her tail broke away and she flew no more
F
She fell from her flight of grace
C/E C Dm F A#
The year they revived the Schneider Trophy race
F Gm7
And the Supermarine S.5
C7 F
Was the plane that made Bill Hosie feel alive
[Outro]
