Biography:
Stanley Allison Rogers (November 29, 1949 – June 2, 1983) was a Canadian folk musician and songwriter.
Rogers was noted for his rich, baritone voice and his traditional-sounding songs which were frequently inspired by Canadian history and the daily lives of working people, especially those from the fishing villages of the Maritime provinces and, later, the farms of the Canadian prairies and Great Lakes. Rogers died in a fire aboard Air Canada Flight 797 on the ground at the Greater Cincinnati Airport at the age of 33.

Fogarty's Cove by Stan Rogers from first album
Chords by Bruce Duncan
Chords are right but words might be wrong
C F
We just lost sight of the Queen's Port light
C F
Round the Bay behind us - and the
Am F
Wind has blown some cold today
F G
With just a wee touch of snow.
C F
Along the shore near Lazyhead
C F
Hard a-beem half island
Am F
Tonight we'll let the anchor go
G C
Down in Fogarty's Cove.
Chorus:
Am G
She will walk the sandy shores so plain
Dm C
Watch the combers roll in
F Am
'Til I come to Wild Rose Chance again
G C
Down in Fogarty's Cove
Verse:
My Sal is like a raven's wing
Hair is like her mother's
With hands that make quick work of a chore
And eyes like the top of a stove
Come supper time she'll walk the beach
Wrapped in my old duffle
With her eyes upon the mast head reach
down in Fogarty's cove
She cries when I'm away to sea
Nags me when I'm with her
She'd rather I'd a government job
Or maybe go on the dole
But I love her wave as I put about
And nose into the channel
My Sally keeps a supper and a bed for me
Down in Fogarty's cove.
