Intro
A#
VERSE:
A# Gm F D#
Well it's just my luck to have the watch, with nothing left to do
A# D# Gm F
But to watch the deadly waters glide as we roll north to the 'Soo',
A# Gm Dm D#
Wonder when they'll turn again and pitch us to the rail
A# F D#
Whirl off one more youngster in the gale.
A# Gm F D#
The kid was so damned eager. It was all so big and new.
A# D# Gm F
Never had to tell him twice, or find him work to do.
A# Gm Dm D#
And evenings on the mess deck he was always first to sing,
A# F A#
Show us pictures of the girl he'd wed in spring.
CHORUS
F D# A#
But I told that kid a hundred times "Don't take the Lakes for granted.
D# A# Gm F
They go from calm to a hundred knots so fast they seem enchanted."
A# Csus2 Dm D#
But tonight a red-eyed Wiarton girl lies staring at the wall,
Gm F D#
And her lover's gone into a white squall.
A# Gm F D#
It's a thing that us oldtimers know. In a sultry summer calm
A# D# Gm F
There comes a blow from nowhere, and it goes off like a bomb.
A# Gm Dm D#
And a fifteen thousand tonner can be thrown upon her beam
A# F D#
While the gale takes all before it with a scream.
A# Gm F D#
The kid was on the hatches, lying staring at the sky.
A# D# Gm F
From where I stood I swear I could see tears fall from his eyes.
A# Gm Dm D#
So I hadn't the heart to tell him that he should be on a line,
A# F A#
Even on a night so warm and fine.
REPEAT CHORUS
A# Gm F D#
And I could feel her keeling over with the fury of the blow.
A# D# Gm F
And I watched the rail go under then, so terrible and slow.
A# Gm Dm D#
Then, like some great dog she shook herself and roared upright again.
A# F A#
Far overside, I heard him call my name.
